Abstract
An enhanced email system that will allow for categorization of wanted email based on relationships between senders and receivers. Modified email servers and clients will deliver and/or sort email based on defined relationships between senders and receivers or intermediaries and the receivers preferences. This means email delivery or sorting is based on a web of relationship. Support for encryption to multiple members of a group is supported by a system of dynamic delivery and maintenance of group keys.
