  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18042551 Titled 'EMAIL SYNCHRONIZATION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method for synchronizing emails on electronic devices. The method involves obtaining the identifier of an email and sending a request to a server. The server responds with information about the email and its structure. The electronic device then determines the identifiers of objects within the email's message body based on the structure information. If the information of a particular object fails to download, the device sends a second request to the server, including the email identifier and the object identifier. The server responds with the requested information of the object.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to email synchronization methods and electronic devices. In one example method, an electronic device obtains an email identifier of an email. The electronic device sends, to a server, a first request including the email identifier. The electronic device receives a first response from the server and extracts the email and the structure information from the first response. The electronic device determines object identifiers of objects in the message body based on the structure information. The electronic device sends a second request to the server if information of a first object in the message body fails to be downloaded, where the second request includes the email identifier and an object identifier of the first object. The electronic device receives a second response from the server and extracts the information of the first object from the second response.
