1. A computer implemented method for providing solutions relating to acronyms, the method comprising: receiving, by a computer system, an email message that specifies a recipient and sender and that includes a text body; mining, relative to acronyms, a database for internet use history for the sender; determining exposure to a particular acronym for the sender; storing, in a profile for the sender, the exposure to the particular acronym; identifying, by the computer system and from within the text body, a first text portion associated with an acronym; retrieving, by the computer system, the profile of the sender and a profile of the recipient; determining an inferred context of the message using information from the profile of the sender; identifying, by the computer system and based on the profile of the sender, one or more acronyms for the first text portion; scoring, by the computer system and based upon online content exposure information in the profile of the recipient, the one or more acronyms for the first text portion, wherein the scoring comprises assigning a first score and a second score to each of the one or more acronyms, wherein the first score is reflective of an accuracy of the one or more acronyms based on the inferred context of the message, and the second score is reflective of a probable knowledge of recipient of the one or more acronyms; identifying, by the computer system and based upon the scoring, a first solution acronym of the one or more acronyms for use, where the identifying includes using the first score and the second score to calculate a confidence value which indicates a likelihood that the first solution acronym is correct; modifying the text body of the email message to include the first solution acronym; and transmitting the email message, as modified, along with the calculated confidence value to the recipient.
