Method and device for prioritizing messages based on based on originating time zone

Abstract

A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and a communication device display an email message by receiving at least one incoming email message, determining the incoming email message originates from a different time zone than the time zone in which the communication device is currently located, and displaying the incoming email message in a prioritized position within a message listing. The incoming email may be displayed at a top of the message list, regardless of reception order. When a plurality of incoming email messages that originate from different time zones are received, each incoming email message is displayed in the message listing according to an absolute or relative time distance from the communication device. When the incoming email message has been read, the read email message is moved to a normal position within the message list.
