ABSTRACT

MBE (Mail by Example) is a visual interface that provides advanced facilities for handling large volumes of electronic messages. It enables users to define ad hoc queries for retrieving messages, folders, or information about those. MBE is based on a “by-example” query style (QBE), to suit the requirements of typical users of email environments. The first evaluation of MBE revealed a generalized satisfaction towards its features.
