Originally email was designed for messaging channel between individuals. However, it is now being used as personal file archiving. The growth of email quantity over time makes searching email hard and time-consuming. It even becomes extremely frustrating for people who have huge amount of emails. Firstly, when searching an email, people often look for a piece of information which is temporarily forgotten. If we can remind of them some related information, searching activity will become faster and easier. Secondly, since memory of information is temporarily lost, it is hard for people to define keyword to type in search box. If people misspell the word, search result will return no hits at all. In order to solve those issues, we provide an interface that support people seeking email more interactively. The interface is the combination of studies from email visualization and keyword extraction technique. Email visualization is the process of visually display email attributes such as sender, recipient, date, and content on the interface. Keyword extraction is a technique of extracting words directly from email body. Extracted keyword can describe related topical word which is meaningful and can be easily understood by users. Main objective of the interface is helping people to reinstate their memory of email information while visually interacting with different email attributes.
