Removal from a whitelist based on an extracted email address
In some embodiments, techniques for electronic messaging may include receiving an email message; receiving an interaction with a user interface relating to the email message; extracting an email address associated with the email message; determining that the email address matches an entry in a whitelist; and responsive to receiving the interaction with the user interface relating to the email message and to determining that the email address matches the entry in the whitelist, removing the entry from the whitelist.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving an email message;
receiving an interaction with a user interface relating to the email message;
extracting an email address associated with the email message;
determining that the email address matches an entry in a whitelist; and
responsive to receiving the interaction with the user interface relating to the email message and to determining that the email address matches the entry in the whitelist, removing the entry from the whitelist.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the email address is of a sender of the email message.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the email address is of an addressee of the email message.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the email address is of a mailing list associated with the email message.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the interaction with the user interface includes a specification that the email message is to be categorized as spam.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the interaction with the user interface includes a specification that an attribute of the email message is to be de-whitelisted.
