A system that determines the importance of an email message. During operation, the system receives the email message destined to a user within a social network. Next, the system determines a frequency of interaction with a sender of the email message by members of the social network and assigns an importance score to the email message based on the determined frequency of interaction with the sender. The system then uses the importance score for the email message to perform an action involving the email message.
