That is, if it is determined in step B06 that "photographing" has been selected, an image is photographed by the image photographing section 12, and the obtained image data is added to the personal data. Then, the process returns to the process from step B05 in the mail creation mode again (step B07).

FIG. 4 is a subroutine showing the detailed processing contents when performing this image photographing. At the beginning, it is determined whether or not the data size has been set by the processing in the "data size setting" mode of the main menu. (Step C01), and by checking the size of the personal data currently being created (step C02),
Based on the difference, a size usable for an image data file to be additionally set will be considered.

Next, by confirming the individual data size of the image data added to each personal data stored in the predetermined telephone directory storage area of the hard disk device 19 (step C03), the number of approximately It is calculated whether the image data of each minute can be taken and attached to the e-mail (step C04).

In this case, the image data obtained by the image photographing section 12 is, for example, horizontal X (dot) × vertical Y (dot)
Assuming that it is × 3 colors (RGB) × 16 bits (number of gradations), the one used in full specification is set to the normal mode, and the number of gradations of each of the three colors RGB is used only in the upper 8 bits and in the lower 8 bits. Is set as the economy mode, and the number of images that can be photographed in both the normal mode and the economy mode is calculated, and the result is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 13 (step C05).
