A method and system for initiating message listening and routing message content to authorized user devices is disclosed. For a second user device to receive notifications regarding records of a first user, the second user device provides information identifying the first user to a notification service. The notification service verifies the identifying information. The notification service initiates one or more listeners to listen for messages flowing over a messaging bus that are relating to the first user. Once a message is identified, at least a portion of the message is used to generate a notification that may be sent to the second user device.

There is provided a method for engaging an online group during an entire group lifecycle using a group activity server that is communicatively connected with user devices associated with users. The method includes (i) obtaining a first input associated with a group activity for a group from a first user device associated with a first user, (ii) obtaining a group activity tool template from a group activity tool template repository, and (iii) generating a GAT based on obtained GAT template and the first input, (iv) creating a first notification badge, and a second notification badge on the generated GAT, and (v) incorporating the generated GAT in user interfaces of the user devices associated with the members of the group to enable members of the group to participate in the generated GAT, thereby engaging the members of the group during the entire group lifecycle.

A method of determining that a client is likely engaged in the sending of spam emails via a network node. The method comprises, at the network node, defining a message size threshold and a message sending rate threshold, detecting the opening of Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, SMTP connections between a client device and an email server, identifying messages sent from the client over the SMTP connections which exceed said message size threshold and counting the identified messages to determine a client email message sending rate. The method further comprises making an assumption that the client is engaged in the sending of spam emails if the client message sending rate exceeds said message sending rate threshold.

Systems and methods are provided for automatically responding to network connectivity issues in a media stream. One example method includes transmitting, from a first computing device, a media stream to one or more secondary computing devices. A network connectivity issue between the first computing device and one or more of the secondary computing devices is detected. If a network connectivity issue is detected, a notification is transmitted to one or more of the secondary computing devices.

Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel framework for providing users with electronic retrieval capabilities that are activated upon the users' determined locations respective to real-world locations associated with a message providing entity. The disclosed technology combines the previously separate systems of mail extraction, geo-fencing and content delivery (e.g., notification) into a single system that efficiently manages a user's inbox in order to provide the user with content the user has expressly indicated is of interest to that user. The disclosed systems and methods effectively realize a location-aware mail experience that provides functionality for delivering location (and timing) specific content to a user when the user is actually capable of acting on/interacting with the content in real-time.
