detailed description

The following describes preferred embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application.

A method for processing mail provided by the embodiments of the present application is used to implement the integration of mails, as shown in FIG. 1, including steps 101-103:

Step 101: Obtain mail information of a target mail, and the mail information includes one or more of a mail subject, a mail body, and a mail attachment.

In the example of this application, the target mail can be any one or more of the inbox, outbox, etc. Specifically, the target mail can be a new unread mail received by the user, or a previously received mail The read message can also be a new message that the user needs to send, or one or more messages selected based on the user's selection instruction. By identifying the mail information (for example, text recognition), the mail information such as the subject, body, and attachment of the target mail can be determined. This email information is used to determine the category of the target email. Generally, the subject of the email can be used as the email information, or other items or multiple items can be used as the email information, which depends on the actual situation. At the same time, when you need to obtain a certain item of information but the The information (such as the CC list, email attachment, etc.) does not exist. At this time, the information is set to null; for example, if the email has no attachment, the email attachment is empty. Optionally, the mail information may further include one or more of a sender, a recipient list, a carbon copy list, and a sending time; the richer the content of the mail information, the subsequent classification process based on the mail information The more accurate.

Step 102: Determine a mail category to which the target mail belongs according to the mail information, and determine a first superior mail referenced by the target mail according to a reference relationship between all the mails in the mail category.

In the embodiment of the present application, the determination of the mail category of the target mail is essentially to determine all mails having a correspondence relationship with the target mail, and all the mails belong to the mail category; the related mails can be grouped into a group; for example, Group messages with the same message subject. At the same time, there is a quotation relationship between messages within the same message category. The "quotation relationship" in the examples of this application refers to the reply relationship and / or the forwarding relationship when sending the mail; for example, the mail b is used to reply to the mail a Mail, mail b refers to mail a, and mail a is a parent mail of mail b. According to the reference relationship between the emails, it is possible to determine the superior email (that is, the first superior email) referenced by the target email. The superior email may be one or multiple. For example, user A sends mail a to users B, C, and D at the same time, then user B replies to mail a with mail b, then user C replies to mail a with mail c, and finally user D replies with mail d with mail d b and mail c; when mail a is the target mail, there is no parent mail in mail a; when mail b is the target mail, the parent mail of mail b is mail a; similarly, the parent mail of mail c is also the mail a; and because the mail d references both the mail b and the mail c, the superior mail of the mail d includes the mail b and the mail c.

Taking the target mail as a newly received unread mail as an example, when the target mail is the most original mail (such as the mail a in the above example), that is, there is no other mail similar to the target mail a. When the target mail a can be classified into a category separately, and there is no higher-level mail; when other similar mail b is received later (mail b is a reply to the mail a), the mail b is the target mail, and The mail b is classified into the same category as the mail a, and the mail a is a superior mail referenced by the mail b. Alternatively, when the target mail a is the original mail, since there is no category corresponding to the mail a at this time, the mail a may not be classified at this time, and the mails a and b are generated when other similar mails b are received. Corresponding message category.

In the embodiment of the present application, determining the first superior mail referenced by the target mail in step 102 may specifically include: first determining the reference content in the target mail, the reference content is the mail information referenced when editing the target mail; The message whose reference content matches is the first parent message of the target message. For example, when user B needs to reply to mail a with mail b, user B needs to reply on the basis of mail a. At this time, when editing mail b, the mail information of mail a will be automatically included, including the sender and receiver of mail a. Users, email subject, etc .; the user adds the content that needs to be answered so that the email body of email b can be generated, and then email b is generated. When other users receive the mail b, they can determine that the mail b refers to the mail information of the mail a, that is, the reference content of the mail b is the mail information of the mail a, and the other user can determine that the superior mail of the mail b is the mail. a. At the same time, the first higher-level mail includes the higher-level mail referenced by the single-level target mail and / or the higher-level mail referenced by the multi-level target mail. Single-level referencing refers to the fact that there is only one level of referential relationship between the target message and the first superior email, and the levels of the two are adjacent; multi-level referencing refers to the superimposed reference between the target email and the first superior email Relationship. Take the above four users to send four mails respectively as an example. The upper-level mails referenced by mail d are mail b and mail c, and the higher-level mails referenced by mail d are mail a; there is no multi-level reference of mail b and mail c. There is only one single-level reference to the parent mail a.

Step 103: Display the first upper-level mail, and display the target mail in the lower-level display area of the first upper-level mail. The lower-level display area is used to display all the lower-level mails of the first upper-level mail.

In the embodiment of the present application, after the first upper-level mail of the target mail is determined, the target mail and the first upper-level mail are displayed at the same time. Since the target mail is a lower-level mail of the first upper-level mail, the target mail is displayed in the first upper-level mail. Within the lower-level display area; at the same time, there may be multiple lower-level mails for the first-level mail, and all lower-level mails of the first-level mail can be displayed in the lower-level display area, and different lower-level mails occupy different display areas. In addition, after the message category of the target message is determined, all messages in the message category can be displayed, or only the similar messages with the sending time before the target message sending time can be displayed, which can be determined according to the actual situation or user settings .

As mentioned above, similar mails in this application contain a quotation relationship, so mails can be classified according to the quotation relationship. For example, mail b refers to mail a (that is, mail b is used to reply to mail a). The subordinate message is message b. At the same time, each message is provided with a corresponding display area, in which the sender, subject, and even the message body of the corresponding message can be displayed. When it is determined that the target mail is a subordinate mail of a certain mail, the area or position for displaying the target mail is determined according to the subordinate display area of the mail. For example, general mails can be arranged in order from bottom to top, that is, a certain area above the first upper-level mail is used as the lower-level display area of the first upper-level mail, and displayed at the lower level. The target message is displayed in the area; when the first higher-level message has multiple lower-level messages (that is, there are other messages referencing the first higher-level message in addition to the target message), the multiple lower-level messages can bisect the lower-level display area. For example, user A sends mail a to users B, C, and D at the same time, then user B replies to mail a with mail b, then user C replies to mail a with mail c, and finally user D replies with mail d with mail d b and mail c; for mail a, mail a is the initial mail, and mail a is displayed at the bottom; for mail b and mail c, both are subordinate mails of mail a, so mail b and mail c can be displayed side by side Above mail a; for mail d, it is a subordinate mail of mail b and mail c, so it can be displayed above mail b and mail c. At this time, a display manner of the mails a, b, c, and d is shown in FIG. 2. Alternatively, the lower-level display area of the upper-level email may be set below the upper-level email, and the corresponding display mode at this time is shown in FIG. 3.

A method for processing mail provided by the embodiments of the present application is to determine the category of a mail according to the mail information, and to determine the subordinate mail of the current mail according to the reference relationship between the mails, and then to respectively display the corresponding display area according to the reference relationship of the mail. Displaying the mails, users can know all the contents of the mails by reading one mail, and do not need to view the mails with one cover, it is convenient for users to read the mails, and it is convenient for users to manage similar mails, and it is convenient to archive and check the mails.

Another embodiment of the present application provides a method for processing mail. The method includes steps 101 to 103 in the foregoing embodiment. For implementation principles and technical effects, refer to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 1. At the same time, in the embodiment of the present application, all similar mails can be displayed when displaying similar mails. At this time, the method further includes steps A1-A2:

Step A1: traverse all historical messages in the message category, and determine the second parent message referenced by each historical message according to the reference relationship between all historical messages, and the historical message is any one of all historical messages in the message category .

Step A2: Display the historical mail in the lower display area of the second higher-level mail corresponding to the historical mail.

In the embodiment of the present application, all the mails in the mail category may form a mail group, and the historical mail is a mail in the mail group except the target mail; similarly, "all mails in the mail category" may be all mails, It can also be a message (including the target message) before the target message is received. When the mail group contains other messages in addition to the target message and the first parent message, all messages in the mail group need to be displayed at this time. Similar to the way to display the target message and the first superior message according to the reference relationship, after determining the second superior message of the historical message, the historical message is displayed in the lower display area of the second superior message; the first superior message can also be Perform steps A1-A2 above as historical mail. In the embodiment of the present application, all mails are displayed according to the reference relationship, and all similar mails can be displayed globally in a hierarchical manner, which is convenient for users to check.

On the basis of the above embodiment, after step 103 "display the target mail in the lower display area of the first upper mail", the method further includes a process of replying to the mail, as shown in FIG. 4, which specifically includes step 104- 105:

Step 104: Receive a reply instruction to the mail to be reply, and the mail to be reply is one or more mails in a display state among all mails of the mail category.

In the embodiment of the present application, when a certain mail is displayed, the mail is displayed at the current time. For example, after the target mail and the first superior mail are displayed in the above step 103, the target mail and the first superior mail are in a display state, that is, the user can consult the target mail and the first superior mail. When the user needs to reply to the mail in the display state, just input a reply instruction pointing to the mail, and the mail is the mail to be reply. For example, the user can select a message to reply by clicking, double-clicking, long-pressing, or swiping. At the same time, the reply instruction can specify one recipient, or multiple recipients or recipient lists, etc., depending on the user's instruction.

Step 105: Determine the third-level superior message of the to-be-reply message according to the reference relationship between the to-reply message and other messages, and generate an editable email template. The email template contains the to-be-reply message and the third-level superior message, and the to-be-reply message It is displayed in the lower display area of the third upper mail.

In the embodiment of the present application, the third superior mail is the superior mail of the to-be-reply mail; when the pending mail is the target mail, the third superior mail is the above-mentioned first superior mail. The mail template generated based on the mail to be responded to and the third-level superior mail also displays the mail hierarchically according to the reference relationship between the mails, so that users who receive the mail based on the mail template can also quickly determine the Reference relationship.

At the same time, the reply instruction in the embodiment of the present application can refer to multiple emails. When there are multiple emails to be responded to, in order to avoid disorder of the relationship between the emails, multiple emails to be responded to can be limited to emails of the same level, that is, only Can reply to multiple messages at the same level at the same time. As in the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2 above, since mail a and mail b are not mails of the same level, user D does not reply to mail a and mail b at the same time. The mail template generated at this time can contain the content of all mails of the same category known to the user, and the display form is calculated based on the user's current mailbox and the response time of the mail, and the mails are arranged according to the parent-child relationship (as shown in Figure 2 above) (Shown) to make it easier for the recipient to view the emails and understand the entire email reply process.

In addition, when the user needs to reply to mails of different levels at the same time, the overall reply process of the mail is displayed by adjusting the display area of the current mail. For example, user A sends mail a to users B, C, and D at the same time, then user B replies to mail a with mail b, and then user C replies to mail a with mail c. At this time, if user D is replying to mail a If you still need to reply to emails b and c, according to user-set rules (for example, reminding whether to merge the contents of b and c, if the user chooses yes, then email d responds to both email a and email b and The content of c is taken as the superior), and the contents of b and c are merged into the current mail. For a display mode at this time, see FIG. 5. In the embodiment of the present application, a type of mail is displayed in the same view, which is also convenient for the user to select the object to be responded to. The user can reply to multiple people's different replies to the same topic at the same time, and other recipients can also Reading all messages and replies to this topic in the same view can improve the response efficiency.

Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, after displaying the first higher-level mail, all the mails may be displayed in another manner, and the display manner specifically includes steps B1-B2:

Step B1: Determine whether the first higher-level mail is the original message of the mail category. When the first high-level mail is not the most original mail of the mail category, determine and display the fourth high-level mail, and display it in the lower display area of the fourth high-level mail. The first parent email is displayed, and the fourth parent email is the parent email referenced by the first parent email.

Step B2: Repeat the above-mentioned processing procedure for the superior mail until the determined superior mail is the original mail of the mail category.

In the embodiment of the present application, the original message is a message that is referenced by all other messages in the message category (including single-level reference and multi-level reference). When the first superior mail is not the original message, the superior mail of the first superior mail, that is, the fourth superior mail, can be determined according to a process similar to step 102, and the first superior mail is displayed according to a similar process to step 103. And fourth superior mail. Then continue to judge whether the newly determined superior mail (that is, the fourth superior mail) is the original message, that is, determine whether there is any further superior mail in the fourth superior mail; when it exists, repeat step B1 to determine all the superior mail ; When it does not exist, the current superior message is the original message, and processing can be stopped at this time.

In the embodiment of the present application, the upper-level mail is determined and displayed layer by layer by judging whether the current upper-level mail is the most original mail, so that all the mails related to the target mail can be displayed, and then all similar mails can be displayed globally in a hierarchical manner. , Further convenient for users to consult.

Based on the above embodiment, the step "displaying the target mail in the lower display area of the first upper mail" in step 103 includes steps C1-C2:

Step C1: Determine all the lower-level mails of the first-level mail, and determine the sending time of each lower-level mail. According to the number of lower-level mails and the sending time of each lower-level mail, determine the lower-level display area of the first upper-level mail for Displays the staging area of the target message.

Step C2: Combine the temporary areas for displaying the target mails of all the first upper-level mails into an effective display area, and display the target mails in the effective display area.

In the embodiment of the present application, when the target mail needs to be displayed, firstly, because the first upper-level mail may correspond to multiple lower-level mails, that is, the lower-level display area of the first upper-level mail needs to display multiple lower-level mails; and the target mail is only multiple lower-level mails. One of the emails, and the subordinate display area needs to be assigned at this time. Taking FIG. 2 as an example, the lower-level mail of the mail a includes the mail b and the mail c. At this time, the display areas for the mail b and the mail c need to be respectively allocated in the lower-level display area of the mail a, and FIG. 2 shows that the lower-level display areas are evenly allocated. At the same time, for mail b, mail b has only one upper-level mail, that is, mail a. At this time, the temporary area for displaying mail b in the lower display area of mail a can directly display mail b, that is, the temporary area determined at this time. Only one, can be directly used as the effective display area of mail b. Meanwhile, since the sending time of the mail b is earlier than the sending time of the mail c, the mail b is set on the left side of the mail c.

If the target email has multiple first-level superior emails, at this time in step C1, each first-level superior email allocates a temporary area for the target email. At this time, all the temporary areas need to be combined in step C2 for display. The effective display area of the target message. Taking Figure 2 as an example, when the target mail is mail d, the mails above mail d include mail b and mail c; at the same time, the mails below mail b and mail c only have mail d, so the subordinate display area of mail b It is a temporary area of mail d, and the lower-level display area of mail c is also a temporary area of mail d, and all the lower-level display areas of mail b and mail c together form an area for displaying mail d, that is, an effective display area. In the embodiment of the present application, by combining one or more temporary areas into an effective display area for displaying the target mail, the reference relationship between the mails can be more intuitively expressed, and the user can further check the mails.

Optionally, when the target message is displayed, the content of the message related to the first superior message in the target message is hidden. Since the target email is based on the first parent email, the target email may contain the content of the first parent email. If the target email and the first parent email are displayed at the same time, the first email may be displayed repeatedly. The email content of an upper-level email. At this time, the content of the email related to the first superior email in the target email is hidden to avoid repeated display.

On the basis of the above embodiment, step 102: "determine the mail category to which the target mail belongs according to the mail information, and determine the first higher-level mail referenced by the target mail according to the reference relationship between all mails in the mail category" specifically includes step D1 -D3:

Step D1: Determine the reference content in the target mail, and the reference content is the mail information referenced when editing the target mail.

Step D2: According to the content of the quotation, determine the first parent message of the target mail single-level reference and the original message at the top reference of the target mail, and determine the mail identifier of the first parent mail and the mail identifier of the original email, and the first parent mail. The mail ID is an ID that is generated based on at least the mail ID of the original message.

Step D3: Generate the mail ID of the target mail according to the mail ID of the first upper-level mail and the mail ID of the original mail; the mail ID is used to determine the mail category of the mail and the reference relationship between all mails in the mail category.

In the embodiment of the present application, the reference content of the target mail may match multiple parent mails. This is because the direct parent mail of the target mail (the parent mail referenced by a single level) may also refer to other mails, and the mail is the target. Indirect superior mail of the message (super-referenced higher-level mail). This is because the reference content of the direct superior mail is also related to the mail information of the indirect superior mail. Therefore, the superior mail that matches the reference content of the target mail may exist. Multiple, and one of them is the original message of the message category, that is, the other messages refer to the original message directly or indirectly. At the same time, each message is provided with a message identifier, which is related to the message identifier of the original message; the message identifier can be generated at the same time when the message is generated, or it can be preset according to the locality after receiving the message. The rule or the preset rule of the mail system is automatically generated, or the mail identifier may be automatically generated when the user views the mail, which is not limited in this embodiment.

Specifically, the mail identifier in the embodiment of the present application is used to determine a mail category of a mail and a reference relationship between all mails in the mail category. First of all, because all message identifiers are generated based on the message identifier of the most original message, that is, according to the message identifier of the most original message referenced by the message, it can be determined which messages belong to the same message category, or all messages in the same message category The mail IDs of all are related to the mail ID of the same original message; at the same time, when generating the mail ID of the target mail, the first higher-level mail referenced by the single level is also referred, so that the superiors directly related to the target mail can be determined based on the mail ID In summary, according to the message identifiers of all messages, the message category of the message and the reference relationship between all messages in the message category can be determined, which facilitates the subsequent process of determining the reference relationship between messages and the superior message.

For example, user A sends mail a to users B, C, and D at the same time, then user B replies to mail a with mail b, then user C replies to mail a with mail c, and finally user D replies with mail d with mail d b and mail c; in the above process, mail a is the original mail. At this time, the mail identifier ① (or "①, null, null") of mail a can be generated separately. Reference relationship, or use null (empty). For mail b, the single-level referenced upper-level mail and the original mail of mail b are both mail a. At this time, the mail identifier “②, ①, ①” of mail b can be generated, where ② indicates the mail serial number of mail b, and There is also a one-to-one correspondence between the mail serial number and the mail. The middle ① indicates the mail serial number of the upper-level mail referenced by the single-level mail b. Since the mail a is the original mail, the mail serial number and the mail identifier of the mail a may be the same; the last ① Indicates the message sequence number of the most original message. Similarly, for mail c, the mail code of mail c is ③, ①, ①, where ③ is the mail serial number of mail c; the mail code of mail d is ④, ②③, ①, where ④ is the mail of mail d The serial number, ②③ in the middle indicates that the single-level reference superior mail of mail d is the mail whose mail serial numbers are ② and ③, that is, mail b and mail c. Alternatively, the email serial number of each email can include the citation relationship of all superior emails; as in the above example, the email encoding of email a is ①, the email encoding of email b is ②, ①, ①, and the email encoding of email c is ③, ①, ①; At this time, the mail code of the mail d can be ④, ②①①, ③①①, ①, that is, the mail code of the target mail is directly generated according to the mail code of the single-level reference mail (②①①, ③①①). More space, but the reference relationship of all superior messages can be determined based on one message encoding.

A method for processing mail provided by the embodiments of the present application is to determine the category of a mail according to the mail information, and to determine the subordinate mail of the current mail according to the reference relationship between the mails, and then to respectively display the corresponding display area according to the reference relationship of the mail. Displaying the mails, users can know all the contents of the mails by reading one mail, and do not need to view the mails with one cover, it is convenient for users to read the mails, and it is convenient for users to manage similar mails, and it is convenient to archive and check the mails. At the same time, displaying a category of emails in the same view is also convenient for users to choose the objects they need to reply to. Users can reply to multiple people's different responses to the same topic at the same time, and other recipients can also be in the same view. Reading all messages and replies to this topic can improve your response efficiency.
