Abstract
A method of building a set of traceable messages through a network of nodes is provided, the method comprising receiving message information corresponding to a first message, the message information comprising a first source identifier and a first destination identifier and determining whether the source identifier is associated with a set of previous messages, whereby when the first source identifier is associated with a set of previous messages, the method comprises identifying the first message as also belonging to the set of previous messages and when the first source identifier is not associated with a set of previous messages, the method comprises identifying the first message as belonging to a new set of messages, the method further comprising associating the first destination identifier with the set of messages to which the first message belongs, such that if a second message is sent from that destination, the second message will be identified as belonging to that set of messages.
