1. A computer-implemented method of evaluating electronic messaging, the method comprising:
- receiving, in an electronic system comprising at least one server device in communication with one or more client terminals over at least one network, from the one or more client terminals, via the at least one server device, one or more messages; and
said at least one server device comprising a non-transitory memory storing program instructions and at least one processor executing said program instructions, said at least one server device processing at least one message of the one or more messages by performing the steps of;
grading content included in said at least one message by extracting a portion of the content from the at least one message and comparing said portion to a predetermined metric;
applying a weighting factor to said at least one message according to said grading, thereby determining a weighted message count for said at least one message;
aggregating the weighted message count for said at least one message; and
initiating an action when the aggregated weighted message count meets or exceeds a predetermined count threshold, said action comprising at least one of determining a financial penalty, modifying a messaging cost and modifying future messaging privileges.

Abstract
Systems for and methods of evaluating messaging, comprising, receiving, via at least one server device, one or more messages, and said at least one server device processing at least one of the one or more messages by grading content included in said at least one message, applying a weighting factor to said at least one message according to said grading, thereby determining a weighted message count for said at least one message, aggregating the weighted message count for said at least one message, and initiating an action if the aggregated weighted message count meets or exceeds a predetermined count threshold.

16. A computerized system of evaluating electronic messaging, comprising:
-
one or more client terminals; and a computer server, in communication with the one or more client terminals over at least one network, the computer server comprising a non-transitory memory storing program instructions and at least one processor executing said program instructions, said computer server configured to; receive one or more messages from the one or more client terminals; and process at least one message of the one or more messages by executing the program instructions to; grade content included in said at least one message by extracting a portion of the content from the at least one message and comparing said portion to a predetermined metric; apply a weighting factor to said at least one message according to said grading, thereby determining a weighted message count for said at least one message; aggregate the weighted message count for said at least one message; and initiate an action when the aggregated weighted message count meets or exceeds a predetermined count threshold, said action comprising at least one of determining a financial penalty, modifying a messaging cost and modifying future messaging privileges. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
