Managing electronic addresses based on communication patterns

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium tangibly encoded with computer-executable instructions, that when executed by a device, perform a method comprising:

• electronically tracking, over a network, metadata of a plurality of electronic communications of a user;
• extracting, by a device, features related to the metadata including a total number of electronic communications between the user and recipients;
• determining, by the device, based on the features, coherency information for the plurality of electronic communications, the coherency information providing an indication as to a logical relationship between recipients;
• generating, by the device, one or more lists of electronic addresses of recipients for the user based on the coherency information;
• determining, by the device, for each electronic address in each list of the one or more lists, a value indicating the total number of communications between the user and the recipient related to the electronic address;
• determining, by the device, for each list of the one or more lists, a clustering density based on the value of each electronic address within the list;
• receiving, by the device, input indicative of selection of an electronic address of a first recipient;
• determining, by the device in response to the input, a subset of lists from the one or more lists that contain the address of the first recipient and are above a threshold clustering density;
• identifying, by the device, electronic addresses of additional potential recipients from the lists in the subset of lists;
• electronically recommending, by the device, in descending order of values, the identified electronic addresses of the additional recipients to the user;
• receiving, by the device, an input indicative of one or more electronic addresses selected by the user from the identified electronic addresses;
• and
• electronically sending, by the device over the network, a message to the selected electronic addresses.

A computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for tangibly storing thereon program logic for execution by the processor, the program logic comprising:
• logic executed by the processor for electronically tracking, over a network, metadata of a plurality of electronic communications of a user;
• logic executed by the processor for extracting features related to the metadata including a total number of electronic communications between the user and recipients;
• logic executed by the processor for determining, based on the features, coherency information for the plurality of electronic communications, the coherency information providing an indication as to a logical relationship between recipients;
• logic executed by the processor for generating one or more lists of electronic addresses of recipients for the user based on the coherency information;
• logic executed by the processor for determining, for each electronic address in each list of the one or more lists, a value indicating the total number of communications between the user and the recipient related to the electronic address;
• logic executed by the processor for determining, for each list of the one or more lists, a clustering density based on the value of each electronic address within the list;
• logic executed by the processor for receiving input indicative of selection of an electronic address of a first recipient;
• logic executed by the processor for determining, in response to the input, a subset of lists from the one or more lists that contain the address of the first recipient and are above a threshold clustering density;
• logic executed by the processor for identifying electronic addresses of additional potential recipients from the lists in the subset of lists;
• logic executed by the processor for electronically recommending, in descending order of values, the identified electronic addresses of the additional recipients to the user;
• logic executed by the processor for receiving an input indicative of one or more electronic addresses selected by the user from the identified electronic addresses;
• and
