ABSTRACT:
A user-defined rule that specifies a condition and an action to be performed is processed in an electronic messaging system that includes a server and a client by determining at the server whether the condition is satisfied upon an occurrence of an event. Once the condition is satisfied, the action is performed at the server if all resources for performing the action are resident on the server. If one or more of the resources for performing the action are resident on the client, a deferred action message representative of the action is generated. The deferred action message is processed by the client, either immediately if the client is presently logged in to the server, or later when the client next logs in to the server, and the action is performed at the client based on the deferred action message.
