Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a mobile phone according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a mobile phone 10 according to the present invention includes, for example, a key operation unit 101, a wireless system circuit 102, a display device 103, a control system circuit 104, a storage circuit 105, and an audio system circuit 106. , A microphone 107, a speaker 108, and a clock circuit 109.

  The key operation unit 101 has a plurality of keys, and various information is input from a user of the mobile phone 10 (hereinafter simply referred to as a user). For example, the key operation unit 101 is input with various information such as the contents described in the e-mail and instructions from the user to the mobile phone.

  The wireless circuit 102 transmits and receives data. When receiving the modulation data, the radio system circuit 102 outputs the modulation data to the control system circuit 104. When the modulation data is input from the control system circuit 104, the radio system circuit 102 transmits the modulation data.

  The display device 103 displays an image under the control of the control system circuit 104. For example, information indicating that a new e-mail has been received (e-mail notification), list of e-mails received, e-mail content (e-mail body, subject, e-mail address, etc.), various setting screens, etc. indicate. The display items listed here are examples, and other items may be displayed.

  The control system circuit 104 controls the entire mobile phone 10 according to a program stored in the storage circuit 105, for example. The control system circuit 104 operates in response to an instruction from the user input via the key operation unit 101. The control system circuit 104 demodulates the modulated data received by the wireless system circuit 102 and modulates data transmitted via the wireless system circuit 102. Note that the data modulated here is transmitted by the wireless circuit 102. In addition, the control system circuit 104 performs processing for displaying an image on the display device 103, output of sound (for example, an e-mail ringing tone or received voice) via the audio system circuit 106, data for the storage circuit 105 (for example, e-mail) ) And reading data from the storage device 105.

  The control system circuit 104 is realized by a CPU that operates according to a program (e-mail information display program), for example.

  The storage circuit 105 stores various data (for example, e-mail) and programs for causing the control system circuit 104 to execute processing.

  The audio system circuit 106 receives an audio signal from the microphone 107 and outputs the audio signal to the control system circuit 104. In addition, the audio circuit 106 outputs audio (received audio) from the speaker 108 in accordance with the audio signal input from the control system circuit 104. Also, the voice circuit 106 outputs an e-mail ringing tone or the like from the speaker 108 according to the control system circuit 104. The microphone 107 converts the user's voice into a voice signal and outputs the voice signal to the voice system circuit 106. The speaker 108 outputs a voice (received voice), an e-mail ringtone, or the like in accordance with a voice signal output from the voice system circuit 106. The clock circuit 109 outputs time information to the control system circuit 104. The control system circuit 104 displays the time on the display device 103 based on the time information.

  When the mobile phone 10 receives an e-mail from the network, the radio system circuit 102 receives the modulation data from the network and outputs the modulation data to the control system circuit 104. The control system circuit 104 demodulates the modulation data and causes the storage circuit 105 to store the e-mail data obtained by the demodulation. In addition, the control system circuit 104 causes the speaker 108 to output a ring tone indicating that the electronic mail has been received via the voice system circuit 106. Further, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display information indicating that a new mail has been received (notification of incoming e-mail). The user can read the received e-mail by operating the key operation unit 101 according to the guidance (information) displayed on the display device 103.

  However, the mobile phone 10 receives a notification that it has received an e-mail (hereinafter referred to as a priority mail) including a predetermined specific phrase (hereinafter referred to as a specific keyword), and receives another e-mail. It is set whether or not to display it separately from the notification to the effect. The setting for displaying the information indicating that the priority mail has been received (priority mail arrival notification) separately from the information indicating that the other e-mail has been received (ordinary e-mail notification) is hereinafter referred to as the priority display setting. I write.

  When the priority display setting is performed in advance, the control system circuit 104 displays the incoming notification of the priority mail in a display mode different from the incoming notification of the normal electronic mail (that is, the electronic mail other than the priority mail). In addition, when the priority display setting is performed and the user performs an operation for displaying a list of e-mails, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display only a list of unread priority mails. Note that unread means that the body of the electronic mail has not yet been displayed. Also, the fact that the body of the e-mail has already been displayed is marked as read.

  When the priority display setting is not performed, the control system circuit 104 displays the priority mail incoming notification in the same display manner as the normal electronic mail incoming notification. In addition, when the user performs an operation for displaying a list of e-mails in a state where priority display setting is not performed, the control system circuit 104 does not distinguish e-mails without distinguishing priority e-mails from other normal e-mails. A list is displayed on the display device 103. At this time, the control system circuit 104 also includes the read e-mail in the e-mail list.

  Next, the operation when priority display is set will be described. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a display screen for performing priority display setting. When a display screen display instruction for performing priority display setting is input from the user via the key operation unit 101, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display the screen illustrated in FIG. The example shown in FIG. 2A shows an example in which two items “present” and “absent” are displayed. “Present” shown in FIG. 2 (a) means that priority display setting is performed, and “None” shown in FIG. 2 (a) means that priority display setting is not performed. The control system circuit 104 moves the cursor to “present” or “not present” in accordance with the operation of the key operation unit 101 by the user. FIG. 2A shows a state where the cursor has moved to “present”.

  When a predetermined key of the key operation unit 101 is pressed while the cursor is moved to “present”, the control system circuit 104 sets the setting of the mobile phone 10 as the priority display setting. Subsequently, the control system circuit 104 displays the screen illustrated in FIG. 2B on the display device 103 and prompts the user to input a specific keyword. The screen illustrated in FIG. 2B includes a specific keyword input field 21 and a confirmation icon 22 in the screen. The input column 21 is a column in which a specific keyword is input by the user. FIG. 2B illustrates three input fields 21 and illustrates a case where up to three specific keywords can be input, but the number of specific keyword input fields 21 is not limited. The confirmation icon 22 is an icon for confirming the character string input in the input field 21 as a specific keyword. After the character string is input to the input field 21 by the user's operation of the key operation unit 101, when the key operation unit 101 performs an operation of moving the cursor to the confirmation icon 22, the control system circuit 104 sets the cursor to the confirmation icon. Move to 22. In this state, when a predetermined key of the key operation unit 101 is pressed, the control system circuit 104 determines the character string input in the input field 21 as a specific keyword. Thus, the priority display setting operation is completed. The control system circuit 104 stores the determined specific keyword in the storage circuit 105, for example.

  In the example shown in FIG. 2B, character strings “important” and “emergency” are input as specific keywords. When the control system circuit 104 determines these two character strings as specific keywords by a user operation, the control system circuit 104 selects at least one of the specific keyword “important” and the specific keyword “emergency” as the subject. The e-mail included in the body text or the e-mail address is determined as the priority e-mail. Therefore, the user can select a specific keyword so that an e-mail including a desired character string is determined as a priority mail.

  In addition, on the screen illustrated in FIG. 2A, when a predetermined key of the key operation unit 101 is pressed while the cursor is moved to “none”, the control system circuit 104 sets the mobile phone 10. The setting process is terminated without setting the priority display. At this time, if the setting of the mobile phone 10 is the priority display setting, the priority display setting is canceled and the setting process is terminated.

  Next, an operation for determining the display mode of the incoming notification after receiving the e-mail will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of an operation for determining an incoming notification display mode after receiving an e-mail. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing a display example of an incoming call notification. FIG. 4A shows an example of an incoming call notification display screen when the setting of the mobile phone 10 is the priority display setting and the priority mail is received. FIG. 4A illustrates a case in which the combination of the envelope graphic icon and the text “priority mail” is displayed as the incoming call notification 31. FIG. 4B shows an example of an incoming notification display screen when priority display is not set, or when only normal mail is received even when priority display is set. FIG. 4B illustrates an example in which a combination of an envelope graphic icon and “new mail” is displayed as the incoming call notification 32.

  When receiving the electronic mail, the control system circuit 104 determines whether or not the setting of the mobile phone 10 is a priority display setting (step S41). When the priority display setting is not set (N in Step S41), the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display a normal electronic mail incoming notification 32 (Step S44). In other words, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display a screen (see FIG. 4B) including a normal electronic mail incoming notification 32.

  If it is determined in step S41 that priority display is set (Y in step S41), the control circuit 104 analyzes the subject, body, or mail address of the received e-mail, and subject, body, or mail address. It is determined whether or not there is a character string that matches at least one of the specific keywords (step S42).

  If there is no character string that matches the specific keyword in any of the subject, body, or mail address of the received e-mail (N in step S42), the control circuit 104 displays a normal e-mail incoming notification 32 on the display device. 103 is displayed (step S44). In other words, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display a screen (see FIG. 4B) including a normal electronic mail incoming notification 32.

  If there is a character string that matches at least one of the specific keywords in the subject, body, or mail address of the received e-mail (Y in step S42), the control system circuit 104 determines that the priority mail The incoming call notification 31 is displayed on the display device 103 (step S45). That is, the control system circuit 104 causes the display device 103 to display a screen including the priority mail incoming notification 31 (see FIG. 4A).

  Note that the screen displayed in step S44 may be the same screen as the incoming notification display screen (eg, see FIG. 7C) in the conventional mobile phone.

  Next, an operation when displaying a list of e-mails will be described. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a screen displayed during an operation of displaying an e-mail list. FIG. 5A shows an example of a screen displaying a list of each email received and stored in the storage circuit 105. In the screen illustrated in FIG. 5A, the characters “unread” indicate unread. The character “already” indicates that it has been read. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the list of e-mails is displayed with the received date and subject lined up after the letters “not yet” or “already”. As shown in FIG. 5A, it is assumed that the storage device 105 stores a plurality of unread e-mails and a plurality of read e-mails. Further, it is assumed that an unread e-mail includes an e-mail including a character string “important” in the subject.

  FIG. 5B shows an example of a change in the display screen when displaying a list of e-mails when the setting of the mobile phone 10 is the priority display setting. In the following description, it is assumed that two character strings “important” and “emergency” are defined as specific keywords, as shown in FIG. In this case, since the priority mail including the specific keyword “important” in the subject is received, the control system circuit 104 performs the operations of step S41, step S42, and step S45 (see FIG. 3) to determine the priority mail. The incoming call notification 31 is displayed on the display device 103 and waits (see step S61, FIG. 5B).

  When an instruction to select an icon of the priority mail incoming notification 31 is input from the user via the key operation unit 101, the control circuit 104 moves the cursor to the icon of the priority mail incoming notification 31 (step S62, step S62). (Refer FIG.5 (b).).

  Subsequently, when a predetermined key of the key operation unit 101 is pressed, the control system circuit 104 searches for a priority mail from unread electronic mails stored in the storage circuit 105. That is, the control system circuit 104 searches the unread electronic mail stored in the storage circuit 105 for an electronic mail that includes at least one of the specific keywords in the subject, body, or mail address. Then, a list of priority mails obtained as a result of the search is displayed on the display device 103 (see step S63, FIG. 5B). When displaying a list of e-mails, for example, information indicating whether unread or read, reception date, subject, etc. may be displayed side by side. In this example, since there is an unread mail including the specific keyword “important” in the subject, the control system circuit 104 searches for the mail and displays it on the display device 103 (see step S63, FIG. 5B). ).

  When an operation for selecting one of unread priority mails displayed in a list is performed by the user, the control circuit 104 displays the text of the selected priority mail on the display device 103.

  If there is one unread e-mail stored in the storage circuit 105, does the subject, body, or e-mail address of the one e-mail contain at least one of the specific keywords? You should confirm whether or not. If it is included, the one unread e-mail may be displayed in the same manner as the list display.

  FIG. 5C shows an example of a change in the display screen when displaying a list of e-mails when priority display is not set. If the priority display is not set, the control system circuit 104 performs the operations of steps S41 and S44 (see FIG. 3), displays a normal electronic mail incoming notification 32 on the display device 103, and waits ( Step S71, see FIG.

  When an instruction to select an icon of the normal e-mail incoming notification 32 is input from the user via the key operation unit 101, the control circuit 104 moves the cursor to the icon of the normal e-mail incoming notification 32. (See step S72, FIG. 5C.)

  Subsequently, when a predetermined key of the key operation unit 101 is pressed, the control system circuit 104 displays a list of each mail stored in the storage circuit 105 on the display device 103 (step S73, FIG. 5 (c). )reference.). When displaying a list of e-mails, for example, information indicating whether unread or read, reception date, subject, etc. may be displayed side by side. Here, without searching for priority mail, a list display screen similar to the screen shown in FIG. 5A is displayed (see step S73, FIG. 5C).

  When an operation for selecting one of the listed electronic mails is performed by the user, the control system circuit 104 displays the text of the selected electronic mail on the display device 103.

  According to the present invention, when an e-mail containing a specific keyword is received at the time of priority display setting, the control system means 104 causes the display device 103 to display the priority mail incoming notification 31 illustrated in FIG. . Therefore, the user can be notified that the priority mail including the specific keyword is received, and the user can immediately know the arrival of the priority mail. Therefore, the user immediately notices the arrival of the priority mail and can view the priority mail immediately. Then, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the priority mail is buried in another electronic mail without the user being aware of the presence of the priority mail, and the user cannot immediately view the priority mail.

  When displaying a list of e-mails when priority display is set, the control system means 104 searches for e-mails containing a specific keyword and displays a list of priority e-mails obtained as a result of the search. Accordingly, it is possible to present only the priority mail to the user and promote the browsing of the priority mail by the user. In addition, user convenience is good.

  In addition, if the user notifies the e-mail sender of the specific keyword, the e-mail sender can send an e-mail including matters (for example, urgent notice matters or important notice matters) that the user wants to preferentially notify. An email can be sent so that the email is viewed preferentially.

  In the above embodiment, the priority mail incoming notification 31 and the normal email incoming notification 32 are distinguished by the characters “priority mail” and “new mail”, and the icon (envelope figure in the above example) is shared. It showed the case. In the priority mail incoming notice 31 and the normal electronic mail incoming notice 32, the icons to be displayed may be changed in common. For example, the priority mail incoming notification 31 and the normal electronic mail incoming notification 32 may be displayed in common such as “new mail”, and the icon color may be changed. In this case, since the displayed characters are common in the priority mail incoming notification 31 and the normal email incoming notification 32, only the user of the mobile phone 10 can easily recognize the priority mail incoming, and for the third party, It is possible to make it difficult to grasp incoming priority mails.

  Further, an incoming e-mail may be notified by an icon or a character, and whether or not a priority mail has been received may be notified by a standby screen to be displayed. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of display when a standby screen is used to notify whether or not priority mail is received. In the example shown in FIG. 6, the icons and characters indicating the arrival of an electronic mail are common when only normal electronic mail is received or when priority mail is received. In the example shown in FIG. 6, an envelope figure is shown as an icon, and “new mail” is shown as a character.

  When the process proceeds to step S44 (see FIG. 3), the control system circuit 104 may display the standby image 81 illustrated in FIG. 6A on the display device 103 in addition to such icons and characters. . When the process proceeds to step S45 (see FIG. 3), the control system circuit 104 can display the standby image 82 illustrated in FIG. 6B on the display device 103 in addition to such icons and characters. That's fine.

  Arbitrary standby screens may be set in advance as the standby screens 81 and 82, respectively.

  In this way, even when the standby image is used to notify the arrival of the priority mail, the user can immediately notice the arrival of the priority mail and can view the priority mail immediately.

  Note that the electronic mail type determination means and the priority mail search means are realized by the control system circuit 104. The display means is realized by the control system circuit 104 and the display device 103. The storage means is realized by the storage circuit 105. The input means is realized by the key operation unit 101.

  The present invention is applicable to a mobile phone with a mail function.
