Description

一种信息获取方法、 系统及 IMAP客户端 技术领域
本发明涉及通信领域, 尤其涉及一种信息获取方法、 系统及 IMAP客 户端。 背景技术
随着通信技术, 特别是互联网技术的发展, 人们通过电子邮件或语音 信箱等媒体信息业务进行沟通和交流已成为人们日常生产和生活中不可或 缺的一部分。
一个用户往往会为自己的电子邮件或语音信箱业务申请多个用户账户 (即网络存储单元地址或用户标识), 以满足各种不同的需要。 然而, 当用 户拥有多个用户账户时, 用户通过不同用户账户接收的电子邮件或语音邮 件被保存在各自对应的网络存储单元(如邮箱) 中, 用户在访问某一个用 户账户对应的网络存储单元时, 无法访问其它用户账户对应的网络存储单 元, 无法查看其通过其它用户账户接收的电子邮件或语音邮件。 用户只能 用另一个用户账户重新登录, 才能访问其它用户账户的网络存储单元中的 邮件, 从而给用户带来不便, 不利于用户体验。
另外, 在一个家庭或企业的一个工作组中, 各用户之间往往需要互相 查看或共享邮件内容, 例如, 父母有时需要查看孩子的信息, 家庭成员之 间经常会需要共享一些各家庭成员都感兴趣的邮件, 企业工作组的成员之 间有时需要通过简单高效的方式共享各自的邮件内容。 然而, 根据现有技 术, 在不知道其他用户登录信息的情况下, 无法查看该用户的信息, 邮件 的共享只能通过用户之间的邮件转发来实现, 影响用户体验。
以上所述的问题会出现在电子邮件及语音信箱业务中。 基于现有技术, 用户通过某一个用户账户接收、 创建或发送的电子邮件或语音邮件被保存 在该用户账户所对应的网络存储单元中后, 如果用其它用户账户登录服务 器, 则无法查看所述的这些电子邮件或语音邮件。 类似的问题也会出现在 融合消息业务中。 用户通过融合消息业务系统收发的即时消息、 对话记录 等都可作为消息保存在该用户账户所对应的网络存储单元(在融合消息业 务系统中通常位于消息存储服务器) 中。 基于现有技术, 每一个用户账户 对应一个网络存储单元, 通过其它用户账户登录服务器后无法访问该网络 存储单元。
目前, 大多数的电子邮件业务邮件访问和管理、 语音信箱业务的语音 消息的访问和管理, 以及融合消息业务的存储功能都是基于互联网消息访 问协议( Internet Message Access Protocol, IMAP )。现在还没有一种在 IMAP 消息业务系统中将不同的用户账户相互关联, 使得不同的用户账户可以相 互访问的方法。 发明内容
有鉴于此, 本发明的主要目的在于提供一种信息获取方法、 系统及 IMAP客户端, 能够简化用户操作, 提高用户体验。

所述 IMAP客户端, 设置为根据用户操作与网络侧交互, 完成用户账 户登录;
所述 IMAP服务器, 设置为在用户通过所述用户账户关联信息中的一 用户账户登录后, 向所述 IMAP客户端提供所述用户账户及与所述用户账 户关联的所有用户账户对应的信息。
可选的, 所述 IMAP服务器, 还设置为在用户上报用户账户关联信息 之后, 为所述用户账户关联信息涉及的相互关联的用户账户分配一个网络 存储单元, 用于存储所述相互关联的用户账户对应的信息。
可选的, 所述 IMAP服务器, 还设置为在用户上报用户账户关联信息 之后, 为所述用户账户关联信息涉及的相互关联的用户账户分别分配网络 存储单元, 用于存储各用户账户对应的信息; 以及在用户通过所述用户账 户关联信息中的一用户账户登录后, 与 IMAP客户端交互, 使用户分别访 所述 IMAP客户端, 还设置为在用户通过所述用户账户关联信息中的 一用户账户登录之后, 与所述 IMAP服务器自动交互, 分别访问与所述用 户账户相互关联的各用户账户对应的网络存储单元。 信息可以是账户之间传递的邮件、 消息等, 也可以是账户自身的管理信息 等。 下面结合具体实施例对本发明的技术方案作进一步详细说明。 实施例 1
在本实施例中, 用户预先设置了用户账户关联信息后, IMAP服务器根 据用户账户关联信息, 为多个相互关联的用户账户分配单一的一个网络存 储单元(网络存储单元中可进一步划分为若干文件夹, 如收件箱、 发件箱、 草稿箱等), 即多个相互关联的用户账户共用同一个网络存储单元, 通过其 中任一个用户账户接收、 创建或发送的消息都被保存在该网络存储单元中, 用户的 IMAP客户端可通过相互关联的用户账户中的任意一个登录 IMAP 服务器并访问该网络存储单元, 随后可以查看所有相关联的用户账户所对 应的消息。
图 2为本发明实施例 1中的业务系统示意图, 如图 2所示, IMAP服务 器根据用户业务注册信息中的用户账户关联信息的指示, 为相互关联的用 户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C分配单一的一个网络存储单元。 用户 账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C共享该网络存储单元及其中的各个文件 夹,如收件箱、发件箱、草稿箱等。用户的 IMAP客户端可通过用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C中的任一个用户账户登录服务器并访问该网络存 储单元。 随后, IMAP客户端可在其用户界面上向用户显示用户账户 A、 用 户账户 B及用户账户 C所共享的网络存储单元及其内部各文件夹的信息, 供用户选择并进行后续操作。
图 3为本发明实施例 1的实施流程示意图, 如图 3所述, 该流程包括: 步驟 301 : 用户预先在其业务注册信息中设置用户账户关联信息,请求 将用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C相互关联起来; IMAP服务器根 据所述用户账户关联信息, 为用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C分配 单一的一个网络存储单元(网络存储单元中可包含若干文件夹, 如收件箱、 发件箱、 草稿箱等); 步驟 302: 当 IMAP服务器接收到发往用户账户 A、用户账户 B或用户 账户 C的消息时, 将这些消息都存放入用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账 户 C所共享的网络存储单元中 (如存入收件箱中);
步驟 303: 用户的 IMAP客户端与 IMAP服务器建立一条 IMAP连接, 通过相互关联的用户账户中的任一个用户账户(如用户账户 A )登录 IMAP 服务器并访问该网络存储单元;
本步驟可通过现有的 IMAP协议鉴权机制, 在 IMAP客户端和 IMAP 服务器之间建立一条 IMAP连接并完成对用户账户的验证;
步驟 304: 成功登录后, IMAP客户端可在其用户界面上向用户显示用 户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C所共享的网络存储单元及其内部各文 件夹的信息, 供用户选择并进行后续操作; 用户可以查看通过用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C接收、 创建或发送的所有消息; 例如, 当用户选 择收件箱后, 用户可以查看到通过用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C 接收到的所有消息;
步驟 305: 当用户需要创建或发送消息时, 用户可以选择相互关联的用 户账户中的任一个用户账户 (如用户账户 A )作为消息的发起方, IMAP客 户端与 IMAP服务器可将用户创建或发送的消息保存在用户账户 A、 用户 账户 B及用户账户 C所共享的网络存储单元中 (例如分别保存在草稿箱或 发件箱中); 当用户此后用其它用户账户 (如用户账户 B或用户账户 C )登 录时, 也可以继续对该消息进行查看和操作。 实施例 2
在本实施例中, 用户预先设置了用户账户关联信息后, IMAP服务器根 据用户账户关联信息, 为相互关联的每一个用户账户分别分配一个网络存 储单元(各网络存储单元中可进一步划分为若干文件夹, 如收件箱、 发件 箱、 草稿箱等), 通过其中某一个用户账户接收、 创建或发送的消息都被保 存在该用户账户所对应的网络存储单元中, 用户的 IMAP客户端通过相互 关联的任一个用户账户登录 IMAP服务器并访问该用户账户对应的网络存 储单元后,其它关联的用户账户在 IMAP服务器中分别自动通过验证, IMAP 客户端分别访问各用户账户所对应的网络存储单元, 随后用户可以查看所 有相关联的用户账户的网络存储单元中的消息。
图 4为本发明实施例 2中的业务系统示意图, 如图 4所示, IMAP服务 器根据用户业务注册信息中的用户账户关联信息的指示, 为相互关联的用 户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C分别分配一个网络存储单元。 用户账 户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C各自拥有自己的网络存储单元及其中所含 的各个文件夹, 如收件箱、 发件箱、 草稿箱等。 用户的 IMAP客户端通过 用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C中的任一个用户账户登录 IMAP服 务器后, 其它关联的用户账户也在 IMAP服务器中自动通过验证。 IMAP客 户端分别访问各用户账户所对应的网络存储单元。 随后, IMAP客户端可在 其用户界面上同时显示用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C各自对应的 网络存储单元及其内部各文件夹的信息 , 供用户选择并进行后续操作。
图 5为本发明实施例 2的实施流程示意图, 如图 5所述, 该流程包括: 步驟 501 : 用户预先在其业务注册信息中设置用户账户关联信息,请求 将用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C相互关联起来; IMAP服务器根 据所述用户账户关联信息, 为用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C分别 分配一个网络存储单元(各网络存储单元中可包含若干文件夹, 如收件箱、 发件箱、 草稿箱等);
步驟 502: 当 IMAP服务器接收到发往用户账户 A、用户账户 B或用户 账户 C的消息时, 将这些消息相应的存放入用户账户 A、 用户账户 B或用 户账户 C的网络存储单元中 (如存入收件箱中);
步驟 503: 用户的 IMAP客户端与 IMAP服务器建立一条 IMAP连接, 通过相互关联的用户账户中的某一个用户账户(如用户账户 A )登录 IMAP 服务器并访问该用户账户所对应的网络存储单元;
本步驟可通过现有的 IMAP协议鉴权机制, 在 IMAP客户端和 IMAP 服务器之间建立一条 IMAP连接并完成对用户账户的验证;
步驟 504: 根据用户账户关联信息, 用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账 户 C相互关联, 因而, 当其中一个用户账户 (如用户账户 A )通过险证之 后, IMAP客户端和 IMAP服务器自动为另外两个用户账户 (如用户账户 B 和用户账户 C )分别建立各自对应的 IMAP连接, 这两个用户账户在 IMAP 服务器中自动通过验证; 这样就实现了对用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户 账户 C这三个网络存储单元账户的同时访问;
步驟 505: 成功登录后, IMAP客户端可在其用户界面上向用户同时显 示用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C各自的网络存储单元及其内部各 文件夹的信息,供用户选择并进行后续操作;用户可以查看通过用户账户 A、 用户账户 B及用户账户 C接收、 创建或发送的所有消息; 例如, 当用户选 择用户账户 A的收件箱后,用户可以查看到通过用户账户 A接收到的消息; 当用户选择用户账户 B的收件箱后, 用户可以查看通过用户账户 B接收到 的消息; 当用户选择用户账户 C的发件箱后, 用户可以查看通过用户账户 C发送的消息 ... ...
步驟 506: 当用户需要创建或发送消息时, 用户可以选择相互关联的用 户账户中的任一个用户账户 (如用户账户 A )作为消息的发起方, IMAP客 户端与 IMAP服务器可将用户创建或发送的消息保存在该用户账户所对应 的网络存储单元中 (例如分别保存在草稿箱或发件箱中); 当用户此后用其 它用户账户 (如用户账户 B或用户账户 C )登录时, 也可以继续对该消息 进行查看和操作。
可以看出, 采用本发明方案, 当用户设置了用户账户关联信息后, 用 户在访问一个用户账户对应的网络存储单元时, 可以同时查看其它与之关 联的用户账户所对应的消息, 从而能够简化用户操作, 提高用户体验。
以上所述的实施例可适用于基于 IMAP协议的电子邮件或语音信箱业 务系统中电子邮件或语音邮件的保存和管理, 也可适用于基于 IMAP协议 进行信息存储的融合消息业务系统中信息的保存和管理。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围。
