A system and method for increasing email productivity based on an analysis of the content of received email messages. The system includes a content analysis engine that analyzes the content of a received email message using natural language processing techniques. A prioritization module produces a priority score and a priority level for the message using a prioritization knowledge base. A message sorting module produces a set of suggested folders for the message using a sorting knowledge base. A junkmail module produces a junkman score for the message using a junkmail knowledge base. The prioritization knowledge base, the sorting knowledge base, and the junkmail knowledge base are updated with feedback from the user for each received email message, which allows the system to learn in real-time the user's preferences.

The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the email productivity module includes a folder management function that analyzes the content of previously stored messages in each folder and identifies messages that may not belong in a particular folder according to information in the at least one sorting knowledge base. 10. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the email productivity module is configured to execute a prespecified operation if the priority score exceeds a predefined threshold. 11. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the prespecified operation comprises forwarding the received email message to a wireless device. 12. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the prespecified operation comprises tagging the received email message with a relevant tag. 13. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the email productivity module is further configured to forward the received email message to a wireless device if a highest scoring folder matches a predetermined folder. 14. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the message sorting module is further configured to automatically move the received email message to a folder if a score for the folder exceeds a predetermined or dynamic threshold. 15. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the junkmail module is further configured to automatically move the received email message to a junkmail folder if the junkmail score for the received email message exceeds a predetermined or dynamic threshold. 16.
