Abstract: A system and method for synchronizing messages between client application instances and a message service provider includes a connection service communicatively coupled to a plurality of client messaging application instances; a first intermediary transfer layer with an inbound message data queue that queues message updates of a client application instance and an outbound message data queue that queues message updates and notifications from a mailbox service layer; a mailbox service layer communicatively coupled to the connection service through the first intermediary transfer layer; a second intermediary transfer layer with an mailbox message data queue that contains queued message data directed at the mailbox service layer and a message service data queue that contains queued message updates directed at a message service layer; and a message service layer configured for message interactions with an outside message service provider.

Abstract: Filtering rules for incoming messages can be dynamically generated by a message management service based on patterns in the user's behavior. The message management service can analyze event records associating user actions with features of messages to detect correlations between message features and resulting actions, including correlations across multiple messaging accounts belonging to the same user. Based on correlations, the message management service can provide a suggested rule to the user's client device, and the user can accept or decline the suggestion.

Abstract: Message management services can include processing an email to identify relevant content from among all content in the email and converting the identified relevant content into a simple, easy-to-read format. For example, message management services can apply multiple parsing strategies to an email. Each strategy can attempt to parse the email to identify relevant content and to output results that include any identified relevant content and an associated confidence score. The results having the highest confidence score can be selected. The identified relevant content included in the selected results can be converted into a flat string with stylings and links for displaying relevant content of the email in a simple, easy-to-read format.

Abstract: A message management service can enable a client to search and retrieve of messages from one or more messaging services. The message management service can stage delivery of results to the client to reduce response time for identification of messages satisfying a query. Initially, the message management service can send information descriptive of results, which the client can display. The message management service can send subsequent responses including supplemental information associated with a result and/or actual messages.

Abstract translation: 消息管理服务可以使得客户端能够从一个或多个消息服务搜索和检索消息。 消息管理服务可以将结果递送到客户端以减少用于识别满足查询的消息的响应时间。 最初，消息管理服务可以发送描述结果的信息，客户端可以显示。 消息管理服务可以发送后续响应，包括与结果相关联的补充信息和/或实际消息。

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying threads of related messages. A computer can associate messages with threads by storing a thread identifier (thread ID) identifying a thread and associating the thread ID with a message identifier (message ID) of each known message that belongs to the thread. The computer can inspect a message to determine whether the message identifies a reference message. Before assigning a thread ID to the message or a reference message, the computer can determine whether a message ID for either message is stored in association with a thread ID. If a thread ID is stored for a message ID of either message, the computer can assign the thread ID to message IDs of other reference messages. If a thread ID is not stored for a message ID of either message or is different for either message, store a common thread ID in association with both messages.

Abstract translation: 用于识别相关消息的线程的系统和方法。 计算机可以通过存储标识线程的线程标识符（线程ID）并将线程ID与属于线程的每个已知消息的消息标识符（消息ID）相关联来将消息与线程相关联。 计算机可以检查消息以确定消息是否标识参考消息。 在将线程ID分配给消息或参考消息之前，计算机可以确定是否与线程ID相关联地存储任一消息的消息ID。 如果为任一消息的消息ID存储了线程ID，则计算机可以将线程ID分配给其他引用消息的消息ID。 如果对于任一消息的消息ID不存储线程ID，或者对于任一消息都不存在线程ID，则存储与两个消息相关联的公共线程ID。
