Highlighted Display of Unopened (Unread) Email Approaching Expiration Date

摘要

A mechanism is provided for highlighting a display related to unopened (unread) delivered email. The mechanism determines whether a delivered email has been opened (read) or remains unopened (unread). When it has been determined that the delivered email remains unopened, the mechanism determines whether the expiration date established for the delivered email has passed. When it has been determined that the established expiration date has not passed, the mechanism determines whether the time threshold for starting highlighted display established for the delivered email has passed. When it has been determined that the time threshold has passed, the mechanism highlights the display related to the delivered email.
