Last updated:

Abstract:

A similarity score between a profile of an email sender and one or more profiles associated with one or more respective recipients of the email being sent by the email sender is calculated. In response to determining that the calculated similarity score between the profile of the email sender and at least one profile of the one or more profiles associated with a respective recipient of the one or more respective recipients does not exceed a first threshold value, a relevance score between a context of the email and each of the one or more recipients of the email is calculated. Responsive to determining that the calculated relevance score between the context of the email and each of the one or more recipients of the email does not exceed a second threshold value, a distribution list of the email is updated. The email is transmitted using the updated distribution list.
