The present invention relates to a method for managing Electronic messages and a related system wherein at least one electronic message is forwarded from an electronic messaging source of a plurality of electronic messaging sources towards at least one terminal of a at least one corresponding user of a plurality of terminals of corresponding users through a communications network. The at least one electronic messaging source of the plurality of electronic messaging sources send at least one electronic message towards the at least one terminal of said at least one corresponding user. The terminal of the first user and terminals of users related to said first user send electronic message block preferences towards a community interest management module where the community interest management module determines community message block preferences based on the electronic message block preferences of the first user and the electronic block preferences of the users related to the first user.
Method for managing Electronic messages, said electronic messages being forwarded from an electronic messaging source (ADS) of a plurality of electronic messaging sources (ADS . . . ADSx) towards at least one terminal of at least one corresponding user of a plurality of terminals of corresponding users (U1 . . . Ux) through a communications network, (CN) said method comprising the steps of:
Terminal of a first user for use in a communications network (CN) comprising a plurality of advertisement sources (ADS . . . ADSx) and a plurality of said terminals of users (U1 . . . Ux), said at least one advertisement source being adapted to forward at least one electronic message towards said terminal of said first user, said terminal comprising:
Community interest management module (CIMM), for use in a communications network (CN) comprising a plurality of electronic messaging sources (ADS . . . ADSx) and a plurality of said terminals of users (U1 . . . Ux), said at least one electronic messaging source being adapted to forward electronic messages towards a terminal of a first user, said Community interest management module (CIMM) comprises:
Electronic message Blocking module (PRXY), for use in a communications network (CN) comprising a plurality of electronic messaging sources and a plurality of said terminals of users (U1 . . . Ux), said at least one electronic messaging source being adapted to forward at least one electronic message towards said terminal of a first user, CHARACTERISED IN THAT said electronic message Blocking module (PRXY) is located on a path between said at least one advertisement source and said first user, said electronic message Blocking module (PRXY) comprises a blocking part (BP), that is adapted to block said at least one electronic message sent towards said terminal of said first user by at least one electronic messaging source based on community electronic message block preferences based on electronic messages block preferences of said first user and on block preferences of said users related to said first user, possibly in combination with certain rules.
