Abstract

See full text

In accordance with the present invention, multiple e-mails are received at a network server intended for multiple clients served by the network server. The received e-mails are analyzed to determine patterns of similarity. A selection of similar e-mails are predicted and classified as potentially undesirable e-mail according to the analysis. Upon accessing e-mails from the network server at a data processing system in association with a particular client, the accessed e-mails classified as potentially undesirable e-mail are displayed in a distinct manner from a remainder of the accessed e-mails. Thereafter, in response to a single action by the particular client, the e-mails classified as potentially undesirable e-mail are removed from display, such that the particular client is enabled to efficiently manage removal of e-mails predicted as undesirable by a network server.
