1. A computer implemented method, comprising:
- storing, in a computer, information relating to a plurality of persons on a computer readable medium of the computer, the information including statistical data of message communications between the plurality of persons and a user; and
in response to an input of one or more addresses from the user in an address field of a user interface configured to compose a message,identifying, by the computer for each respective address specified in the address field, a respective person of the plurality of persons that corresponds to the respective address,retrieving, by the computer, statistical data of message communications between the respective person and the user,generating, by the computer, a signature block to include content generated based on the statistical data of message communications between the respective person and the user, andapplying, by the computer, the signature block to the message in the user interface;
receiving, by the computer, at least one customization to the signature block presented in the user interface configured to compose the message; and
saving, by the computer, the at least one customization to the signature block to the computer readable medium in association with the user of the user interface, wherein when one or more messages having the one or more addresses in the address field are composed, the at least one customization is used in generating signature blocks for the one or more messages.
