System for managing electronic mail including disabling replying to a given email and related methods

Abstract:

A system for managing electronic mail (email) from among email recipients may include an email management server configured to store an email reply-impermissible flag for email conversation threads and user devices each associated with a given email recipient from among the email recipients. Each user device may be configured to display a given email having a corresponding email conversation thread associated therewith and communicate an email reply status query message to the email management server for the given email. The email management server may be configured to determine if the email reply-impermissible flag is set for the corresponding email conversation thread based upon the email reply status query message for the given email, and if so, cooperate with a corresponding user device to disable replying to the given email, otherwise cooperate with the corresponding user device to permit replying to the given email.
