Abstract
A method and system are provided for prioritization of the display order of received mail items. In one embodiment, the invention associates a priority sorting attribute with a first email item, sorts an inbasket list of email items by any priority sorting attribute associated with any email item in the inbasket list, said inbasket list including a listing for the first email item, and displays at least a portion of the sorted inbasket list in the sorted order. The priority sorting attribute may be associated with the first email item by either the sender or the receiver of the first email item. A priority sorting attribute may be associated by the sender with some but not all of the intended recipients of the first email item and the priority sorting attribute will then be associated with the first email item only as it is sent to those recipients with whom the priority sorting attribute has been associated.
