EMAIL CONTENT MANAGEMENT AND VISUALIZATION

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide a system, method, and program product to manage and visualize email content using metadata tags. In an embodiment, the method comprises a computing device receiving an email message that is addressed to a recipient and includes a metadata tag; associating the metadata tag with a predefined category and/or subcategory; transmitting a predefined category and/or subcategory to be displayed using at least a pie chart icon that includes a circular chart divided into sectors that illustrate a numerical portion of the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory associated with a metadata tag, wherein each sector includes an arc length that is proportional to a quantity of email messages received that have a metadata tag associated with the sector; and generating an object associated with the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory, wherein in response to a user interacting with the object an action is generated.

1. A computer-implemented method, for email content management and visualization, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, an email message that includes a metadata tag and is addressed to a recipient; for each email message received, associating the metadata tag with a predefined category and/or subcategory; transmitting a predefined category and/or subcategory to be displayed using at least a pie chart icon that includes a circular chart divided into sectors that illustrate a numerical portion of the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory associated with a metadata tag, wherein each sector includes an arc length that is proportional to a quantity of email messages received by the computing device that have a metadata tag associated with the predefined category and/or subcategory the sector represents; and generating an object associated with the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory, wherein in response to a user interacting with the object an action is generated; wherein: the action generated includes the generation of an additional pie chart icon for display that includes a circular chart divided into sectors that illustrate a numerical portion of the metadata tags associated with the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory, and wherein each sector includes an arc length that is proportional to a quantity of email messages that include the metadata tag associated with the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory; the action generated further includes the generation of an additional pie chart icon for display that includes a circular chart divided into sectors that illustrate a predetermined time frame, and wherein each sector includes an arc length that is proportional to a quantity of email messages received by the computing device that is associated with the predetermined time frame the sector represents; the action generated further includes the generation of an additional pie chart icon for display that includes a circular chart divided into sectors that illustrate a numerical portion of the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory, and wherein each sector includes an arc length that is proportional to a quantity of read or unread email messages received by the computing device that include metadata tags that are associated with the transmitted predefined category and/or subcategory; and the metadata tag included in the received email message reflect one or more of a date, time, email message recipient, email message sender, geographic location of the email message sender, relationship between email message sender and email message recipient, geospatial information, email message subject, and whether the received email message is unread.
