People Connected to...too many

[dthomashome]

I love the "People Connected to" feature, but when I get an email from someone who copied half my company, it becomes a bit useless. If we could either edit the list, or have a list to accept and reject before they were added that would be helpful.

Howdy,

Thanks for the suggestion - the ability to clean up the networks you notice and interact with is one we've heard and are thinking about.

When you say a colleague emails "half the company", do you mean they literally added each email address to the email, or that they used a mailing alias (like everyone@mycompany.com)?

I over stated this a bit. :)
A good example is a Department admin who sends email messages to the entire department.

I've installed Xobni at work as well as at home. Here are my observations:

Work: We're a smaller company with about 15 ppl in our location. The networking feature is pretty useless there.

Home: Apparently every single person that shows up on any To or CC field is in a Network with all the other ppl. If I CC ten of my friends they all show up in each other's Network despite the fact that they don't know each other. Maybe outgoing CCs should be discounted in the Network determination?

Just a thought.

Well, I have a few contacts that have 1000-3000 folks listed. Feel like I'm playing the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon. Not sure what you can do there, but I can say that it is interesting. My company is a bit on the large side with close to 200K employees, so things are a little big everywhere.
