ABSTRACT:
Verbal labels for electronic messages, as well as systems and methods for making and using such labels, are disclosed. A verbal label is a label containing audio data (such as a digital audio file of a user's voice and/or a speaker template thereof) that is associated with one or more electronic messages. Verbal labels permit a user to more efficiently manipulate e-mail and other electronic messages by voice. For example, a user can add such labels verbally to an e-mail or to a group of e-mails, thereby permitting these messages to be sorted and retrieved more easily.
