Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosure relates to the technical field of communications, and more particularly, to a method and device for email processing.

BACKGROUND

In the era of the Internet, emails have replaced the paper mails and become an indispensable part in email communications. Any devices capable of connecting to the network may send and receive emails. In addition, regardless of whether the network is a cellular network, there are a plurality of types of devices which are capable of sending and receiving emails, including computers, mobile terminals, for example, mobile phones, PADs, wearable devices and the like. It should be understood that no matter which terminal is used, processing of the emails may be similar.

For example, using mobile devices as an example, mobile phones nowadays are used by people as necessities, and within a drastic increase of the number of smart phones, functions of the mobile phone are not still restricted to making calls, sending and receiving short messages and the like basic functions, the mobile officing function of the smart terminals is gradually prominent. Convenience and practicability of mobile phone emails are fascinating commercial and business persons who need to search for in real time and intelligently in thousands of emails each day.

At present, email boxes are not intended to merely sending emails and checking email content; in addition, attachments are becoming an important part of the emails. In the related art, most of the mobile phone email boxes exhibit attachments in individual emails, that is, exhibiting an attachment and an email thereof as an integrity. Some mobile phone email boxes exhibit all the attachments once in the form of an independent attachment list, that is, exhibiting all the attachments in a file folder in an email box, instead of exhibiting the attachments together with the email content.

No matter individually exhibition of the attachments or exhibition of the attachments once, in practice application, some problems may be more or less encountered. In individual exhibition of an email, the email content of the email may be integrally exhibited, including text content and attachment content of the email. However, sometimes, a user only desires to know the attachment content, and thus would not the email corresponding to the attachment. Accordingly, an approach of exhibiting all the attachments by adding a page of an attachment list is proposed. Operations for the attachments are generally browsing, forwarding, sharing and the like. However, sometimes, upon checking an attachment, the user needs to check the corresponding email. In this case, the user needs to find the email corresponding to the attachment among masses of emails.

Upon checking the attachments in a manner of exhibiting all the attachments once, the user needs to search for text content of the emails corresponding to the attachments, or needs to perform such operations for the emails as forwarding or replying or marking. In this case, the user needs to return to the email list to find the email one by one. This process is time and labor consuming, and causes inconvenience in operability to the user.

FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating an email processing method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the email processing method according to the present disclosure includes the following steps:

Step 110: Attachments of all the emails in a predetermined file folder of an email account are acquired.

In the related art, when an email is received, an email server may acquire the time, sender, attachment name, attachment size and attachment of the email. In this step, attachments of all the emails in a predetermined file folder of an email account may be acquired from the email server.

Step 120: Emails corresponding to all the attachments are determined.

In this step, the emails corresponding to the attachments may be determined according to the attachments. It should be understood that each email stored in an email server has its own email serial number, wherein the serial number uniquely identifies the email. Likewise, each attachment stored in the email server has an email serial number to which the attachment pertains. Therefore, the serial number of the email to which the attachment pertains to may be firstly searched according to the attachment, and then the corresponding email is determined according to the serial number.

Step 130: The attachments of all the emails are exhibited in a first predetermined manner.

In this step, attachments of all the emails in a predetermined file folder of an email account may be exhibited in a separate email attachment list. For example, the attachments may be exhibited in sequence according to the sizes of the attachments, or may be exhibited in sequence according to the acquisition time of the attachments, or may be exhibited in sequence according to the names of the attachments. The first predetermined manner may include a plurality of manners in the related art.

Step 140: Links of the emails corresponding to the attachments are processed, such that a user is capable of performing operations for the corresponding emails via the links.

With respect to the links of the emails determined in step 120, for example, the links of the emails are displayed in the form of icons, such that the user is capable of performing operations for the email by operating the icons. For example, an icon under an item exhibiting an email attachment may be set, and the email may be checked by clicking this icon. In this case, the icon may display characters “check the email”, or characters indicating that the email may be checked via the icon. In practice, a link via which the email may be checked may be directly connected via this icon. Therefore, in this step, processing of the link of the email may be setting the link of the email in an icon; and when the user performs an operation for the icon, the link of the email is operated. In this way, the email may be directly checked, replied or forwarded.

According to the embodiment of the present disclosure, all the attachments are acquired, emails corresponding to the attachments are determined, and links of the emails are processed, such that a user is capable of performing operations for the emails via the links. In this way, while the user checks the attachments by using an attachment list, the user is further capable of checking the emails via attachment jumping, such that mutually linking and jumping between the email attachments and the email content, which facilitates user's checking the emails according to the attachments.
