Abstract

A method for transferring electronic mail (E-mail) including registered and secure messages, uses means for achieving communications in which the sender receives proof of the E-mail message was indeed delivered to recipient. The recipient may either accept the message or not. A plurality of centers connected in a hierarchical key dissemination center array uses certificates to provide the public encryption keys to parties desiring to perform secure E-mail communications therebetween. The array also includes a plurality of intermediaries or post offices which can be used for legal registered mail (LRM). The method supports three modes of E-mail transmission: a secure message system, where there is not receipt of transmission; a business registered mail, where the transaction is direct between the parties and a receipt is returned to sender; and a legal registered mail, where an intermediary participates in the transaction to send the E-mail message to the second user and to bring a receipt to the first user.
