Displaying complex messaging threads into a single display

1. A computer-implemented method for organizing an electronic message thread, the method comprising the following operations performed by one or more processors:

identifying at least two reply groupings, each reply grouping having at least two child reply messages made in response to a parent message sent by a first user and including a first portion and a second portion in a content area;

ordering each of the at least two child reply messages in each reply grouping in chronological order based on the time each of the at least two child reply messages was sent or received;

generating electronic instructions to display, on a user device, the message thread including the parent message, at least a portion of content of a first inline response of a first child reply message being displayed between the first portion and the second portion of the parent message, and at least a portion of content of a second inline response of the first child reply message being displayed after the second portion of the parent message;

further generating instructions to display, on the user device, the two reply groupings, each reply grouping being hierarchically ordered based on a relationship between the parent message and the two reply groupings; and

generating a single display that allows a user to collapse and expand a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message included as part of the first child reply message.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying a root message.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating electronic instructions to display a response from a response content area of the first child reply message outside a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating electronic instructions to display the first and second inline responses as collapsed content.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising blocking the first and second inline responses from being displayed outside of a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating electronic instructions to display an indication of whether at least one of the parent message or the first child reply message have been accessed by the first user, a second user, or a third user.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the parent message or the first child reply messages is an email message.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying a second child reply message, wherein each of the first and second child reply messages include a duplicate of at least part of the parent message and inline responses in the duplicate of at least part of the parent message; and

generating electronic instructions to display at least a portion of content of the inline responses of the first and second child reply messages in the duplicate of at least part of the parent message.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising generating a single display that indents the child reply messages in a reply grouping in relation to their parent message.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

identify at least two reply groupings, each reply grouping having at least two child reply messages made in response to a parent message sent by a first user and including a first portion and a second portion in a content area;

order each of the at least two child reply messages in each reply grouping in chronological order based on the time each of the at least two child reply messages was sent or received;

generate electronic instructions to display, on a user device, the message thread including the parent message, at least a portion of content of a first inline response of a first child reply message being displayed between the first portion and the second portion of the parent message, and at least a portion of content of a second inline response of the first child reply message being displayed after the second portion of the parent message;

further generating instructions to display, on the user device, the two reply groupings, each reply grouping being hierarchically ordered based on a relationship between the parent message and the two reply groupings; and

generate a single display that allows a user to collapse and expand a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message included as part of the first child reply message.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to identify a root message.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to generate electronic instructions to display a response from a response content area of the first child reply message outside a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to generate electronic instructions to display the first and second inline responses as collapsed content.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to block the first and second inline responses from being displayed outside of a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to generate electronic instructions to display an indication of whether at least one of the parent message or the first child reply message have been accessed by the first user, a second user, or a third user.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the parent message or the first child reply messages is an email message.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to:

identify a second child reply message, wherein each of the first and second child reply messages include a duplicate of at least part of part of the parent message; and

generate electronic instructions to display at least a portion of content of the inline responses of the first and second child reply messages in the duplicate of at least part of the parent message.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to generate a single display that indents the child reply messages in a reply grouping in relation to their parent message.

19. A system for organizing an electronic message thread, comprising:

one or more processors; and

a memory storing instructions, the instructions being executable by the one or more processers to perform operations comprising:

identifying at least two reply groupings, each reply grouping having at least two child reply messages made in response to a parent message sent by a first user and including a first portion and a second portion in a content area;

ordering each of the at least two child reply messages in each reply grouping in chronological order based on the time each of the at least two child reply messages was sent or received;

generating electronic instructions to display, on a user device, the message thread including the parent message, at least a portion of content of a first inline response of a first child reply message being displayed between the first portion and the second portion of the parent message, and at least a portion of content of a second inline response of the first child reply message being displayed after the second portion of the parent message;

further generating instructions to display, on the user device, the two reply groupings, each reply grouping being hierarchically ordered based on a relationship between the parent message and the two reply groupings;

generating a single display that allows a user to collapse and expand a duplicate of at least a part of the parent message included as part of the first child reply message.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the instructions further cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

identify a second child reply message, wherein each of the first and second child reply messages include a duplicate of at least part of the parent message and inline responses in the duplicate of at least part of the parent message; and

generate electronic instructions to display at least a portion of content of the inline responses of the first and second child reply messages in the duplicate of at least part of the parent message.
