Upon selection of the calendar look-up banner 32 the user device 2 is configured to retrieve electronic calendars respectively associated with the email users identified in the email thread 22. A score is then calculated for a plurality of time slots in the retrieved electronic calendars, and the time slots are displayed according to their score.
