  • tags are used in combination and may be used as short-hand for actions to be completed in generation of a message for transmission to a recipient.
  • the parser 120 detects the beginning of the content based on a start indicator and continues adding content to a buffer or other storage mechanism until an end indicator is reached. It will be understood that a variety of characters and techniques may be used for indicating the start and end of the personal content.

For example, a personal message indicator is identified by the parser 120 for a recipient that is not currently in the recipient list. The recipient manager 130 adds the recipient of the personal message to the recipient list. The addition is triggered by detection of the tag identifier by the parser 120 or upon generation of the actionable tag by the actionable tag generator 125.

For example, recipient Billie has been identified for a private message and a removal message. The message splitter 140 composes a message for Billie that includes an original message and any content to be received by all recipients, private content in actionable tags (e.g., in blue, etc.), and a removal notification (e.g., in red, etc.) indicating that Jane has removed Billie from the message thread.

  • the message splitter 140 generates a variety of messages that are to be transmitted to the recipients of the message.
  • the message splitter 140 generates a default message that includes general content (e.g., content not associated with an actionable tag, etc.) included by the sender. If a recipient is not identified as the subject of any actionable tags, the message splitter 140 designates the default message for transmission to the recipient. In an example, the message splitter generates a recipient list for the default message that includes recipients that are not subjects of actionable tags.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des systèmes et des techniques de composition de messages multiples à l'aide d'étiquettes exploitables. Un contenu de message doit être reçu d'une interface utilisateur de client de messagerie. Un indicateur d'étiquette exploitable est identifié par analyse d'un corps du contenu de message. Une étiquette exploitable peut être générée d'après l'indicateur identifié d'étiquette exploitable. L'étiquette exploitable générée comprend l'indicateur d'étiquette exploitable, un identifiant de destinataire et un contenu. Un premier message comprenant le contenu du message peut être automatiquement composé. Un second message comprenant le contenu du message et l'étiquette exploitable peut être automatiquement composé. Le premier message peut être transmis à au moins un destinataire et le second message peut être transmis à un destinataire étiqueté associé à l'identifiant de destinataire correspondant à l'étiquette exploitable.
