Claim 16:
17. A method implemented one or more processors, the method comprising:
causing, by a computing device, an email interface to be rendered at a display interface of the computing device or a separate computing device,
wherein the email interface includes selectable elements each corresponding to a respective read email of one or more read emails directed to a user of the email application;

determining, by the computing device, that a group of unread emails that are directed to the user are associated with transfer times that satisfy a transfer time threshold;
determining, by the computing device:
that a first subset of unread emails of the group of unread emails is related to subject matter corresponding to a particular read email of the one or more read emails, and
that a second subset of unread emails of the group of unread emails is not related to the subject matter corresponding to the particular read email of the one or more read emails;

generating, based on the particular unread email and the particular read email having related subject matter, application data that cause the first subset of unread emails and the particular read email to be assigned an interface feature; and
causing, based on the application data, an updated email interface to be rendered at the display interface of the computing device or the separate computing device,
wherein the updated email interface includes a first group of selectable elements that exhibit the interface feature and are rendered directly adjacent to each other, and a second group of selectable elements that do not exhibit the interface feature,
wherein the first group of selectable elements are rendered and exhibit the interface feature simultaneous with rendering of the second group of selectable elements that do not exhibit the interface feature, and
wherein the first group of selectable elements, when selected, provide the user with access to the first subset of unread emails and the particular read email of the one or more read emails.
