1. A computer system for informing a user that an important unread email (IUE) will be removed from an online communication inbox, wherein the IUE is a high priority email determined by an algorithm, comprising:
one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable tangible storage medium, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more tangible storage medium for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, wherein the computer system is capable of performing a method comprising: determining if the user has the IUE using analytics based on a plurality of social collaborative data, wherein the plurality of social collaborative data is extracted from interactions made between the user and at least one other person via at least one of instant messaging, phone call history, email communications, and social network connectivity; determining if an email removal event will occur within a threshold time based on determining that the user has the IUE, wherein determining if the email removal event will occur within the threshold time includes querying the next scheduled email removal event and comparing the next schedule email removal event to the threshold time, and wherein the email removal event comprises at least one of an email deletion event and an email archiving event; determining if the email removal event is starting based on determining the email removal event will occur within a threshold time; displaying an event notification to the user based on determining the email removal event is starting, wherein the event notification presents to the user a plurality of choices to indicate how the IUE will be processed, wherein the plurality of choices includes a first choice to delete/archive all emails except the IUE, a second choice to postpone the deletion/archive event, and a third choice to delete/archive all emails including the IUE, and wherein the displayed event notification comprises a clickable link to an IUE list; receiving a user choice from within the plurality of choices based on the displayed event notification to the user; and processing the IUE based on the received user choice.
