Abstract
Systems and methods for clustering electronic messages are disclosed. In some implementations, a method includes, at a computing device, analyzing content of a first incoming electronic message against a first set of content-based clustering rules associated with a first message cluster, without regard to content relatedness between the first incoming message and any messages previously assigned to the first message cluster. In some implementations, the method further includes, responsive to a determination that the first incoming electronic message satisfies the first set of content-based clustering rules: assigning the first incoming electronic message to the first message cluster, and formatting for display, in an electronic message folder, electronic messages in the first message cluster as a first single cluster graphic.
