Message profiling systems and methods
First Claim
1. A method for operation upon one or more data processors to classify communications from messaging entities, comprising:
- receiving a communication from a messaging entity;
using a plurality of message classification techniques to classify the communication;
combining the message classification outputs in order to generate a message profile score;
wherein the message profile score is used in deciding what action is to be taken with respect to the communication associated with the messaging entity.

Abstract
Methods and systems for operation upon one or more data processors that classify communications from messaging entities. A method can include receiving a communication that was sent from a messaging entity. A plurality of message classification techniques is used to classify the communication. Each message classification technique is associated with a confidence value which is used in generating a message classification output from the message classification technique. The message classification outputs are combined in order to generate a message profile score. The message Profile score is used in deciding what action is to be taken with respect to the communication associated with the messaging entity.
