Abstract
Web-based email systems are enabled to synchronize conversations and conversation properties. Conversations are enumerated to new clients providing folder-specific and global conversation information. After receiving the initial conversation information, clients maintain a conversation state, which is used in updating clients from a web service store through a conversation synchronization command employing an internal application programming interface within the email service.
