Abstract
The present invention provides methods, devices, and systems for managing message distribution lists. More specifically, the message distribution list may be location-specific and the recipients listed in the list may be dynamically updated based on their detected presence with respect to a particular location. By dynamically updating a message distribution list based on presence information, recipients of the message can be provided with a greater assurance that the messages they receive are locally relevant.
