Abstract
The present disclosure relates to improving the performance of computer systems and/or platforms programmed to work in concert with messaging systems for mail triaging. Disclosed are computer systems and methods for enabling a sender of a message to classify a message addressed to the recipient's inbox prior to sending the message based on triaging settings set by the recipient. Message triaging can include applying a recipient created flag to the message, categorizing the message according to a category preset by the recipient and/or instructing the message to be delivered to a specific folder(s) in the recipient's inbox based on folder instructions set by the recipient. The message sender is capable of classifying the message according to classifications the recipient has designated, whereby upon delivery of the message, the message is delivered and displayed in the recipient's inbox according to the recipient's settings that were selected by the sender.
