1. A computer system comprising:
- a processor;
a memory device holding an instruction set executable on the processor to cause the computer system to perform operations comprising;
detecting receipt of a message including a selectable functionality for accessing an external resource and including message data indicative of a source of the message;
predicting when a recipient of the message will interact with the selectable functionality;
generating a message alert feature based on a degree of difference between the external resource and the source of the message; and
presenting the message alert feature, on a display of the computer system, prior to the predicted interaction of the recipient with the selectable functionality.

Abstract
Example methods and systems directed to an Alert Manager are described. According to various embodiments, the Alert Manager detects receipt of a message. The message includes a selectable functionality for accessing an external resource and message data indicative of a source of the message. The Alert Manager predicts when a recipient of the message will interact with the selectable functionality. Prior to the recipient'"'"'s predicted interaction with the selectable functionality, the Alert Manager generates a message alert feature based on a degree of a difference between the external resource and the source of the message.
