Abstract

An electronic messaging system includes a memory operable to store one or more modules and a processor operably coupled to the memory. The processor is operable to execute the one or more modules to receive an electronic message package that includes a message from a sender associated with a first communication device, an indication of an intended recipient, a condition for when the message is to be viewable by the intended recipient, and a teaser that can be immediately viewable by the at least one intended recipient. The processor is also operable to execute the one or more modules to initiate delivery of the message at a second communication device associated with the intended recipient so that the message is viewable by the intended recipient only when the condition has been met while the teaser is immediately viewable by the at least one intended recipient.
