Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed to dynamically estimate a response time while composing an email. A recipient module determines a set of email recipients identified by a user. The set of email recipients comprises intended recipients of a new email message from the user. A response time identification module determines a response time trend for each email recipient. Each response time trend has information relating to previous email response times of an email recipient. An estimate module determines an estimated response time for the new email message based on the retrieved response time trends. A display module displays a visual representation of the response time to the user.
