Systems and Methods for Adaptive Communication Control Using A Profile

A digital message system, for processing a digital message, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs to be executed by the one or more processors;
• the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
• receiving a request from a remote computer system to deliver an outbound digital message to at least one recipient at a particular destination domain;
• determining the destination domain for the outbound digital message;
• reading a profile associated with the destination domain of the outbound digital message, wherein at least one parameter in the profile is a quota on a number of digital messages or a maximum amount of data that may be sent from the digital message system to the destination domain in a given period of time;
• and
• based on the least one parameter in the profile:
• (i) sending the outbound digital message to the destination domain in accordance with the profile when permitted by the at least one parameter in the profile, or
• (ii) holding the outbound digital message without sending the outbound digital message to the destination domain when required by the at least one parameter in the profile, wherein the digital message is not sent to the destination domain by the digital message system during a time when the quota is exceeded.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs configured for execution by a computer, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:

• receiving a request from a remote computer system to deliver an outbound digital message to at least one recipient at a particular destination domain;
• determining the destination domain for the outbound digital message;
• reading a profile associated with the destination domain of the outbound digital message, wherein at least one parameter in the profile is a quota on a number of digital messages or a maximum amount of data that may be sent from the digital message system to the destination domain in a given period of time;
• and
• based on the least one parameter in the profile:
• (i) sending the outbound digital message to the destination domain in accordance with the profile when permitted by the at least one parameter in the profile, or
• (ii) holding the outbound digital message without sending the outbound digital message to the destination domain when required by the at least one parameter in the profile, wherein the digital message is not sent to the destination domain by the digital message system during a time when the quota is exceeded.
