Abstract

See full text

A computerized messaging system which authors messages that contain recipient-specific content, such that each recipient does not necessarily receive a message that is identical to all other recipients. To author a computerized message that contains recipient-specific content, plural portions of the message are authored, and one or more recipients to which at least one portion of the message will be sent are identified. For each recipient, at least one portion of the message is associated with the recipient, such that at least one recipient does not receive all portions of the message. Viewing options are provided to the sender so as to enable the sender to obtain visual cues as to which portions of the message are sent to each recipient or set of recipients, or to allow the sender to view a recipient list for selected portions of the message. At the receiving side, a recipient can view a received message with visual cues such that recipients of private portions of a message can know that others did not receive the private portion, and can further know who received which portions.
