摘要:
A system synchronizes digital messages from one user's multiple digital message accounts into one mailbox. The user identifies the message accounts from which digital messages are to be aggregated. When a new digital message arrives for one of the message accounts, a server providing the message-dependent storage sends an arrival notification to a synchronization system, or is accessed by the synchronization system at various points to check for message arrival, when notification is not forthcoming. Upon determining the arrival of a new digital message, the synchronization system retrieves the new digital message(s) and stores the retrieved message(s) in an integrated mailbox provided by the synchronization system, so that messages from various digital message accounts are collected into the integrated mailbox. This allows the user to manipulate messages in each of the individual accounts using the integrated mailbox without having to access the various accounts individually.
