FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the flow of the folder list display process.

  First, the CPU 10 receives from the decision switch 5d of the input unit 5 an instruction input for displaying a list of received mail information from which memory number or name record of the address book data (step S11), and executes a folder list display process. Then, in a predetermined order such as memory number order or name alphabetical order, the name information after the designated record is a folder name, and the mail data 86 is sorted by the mail address corresponding to the name information. A list for each folder is displayed (step S12).

  Here, the folder list display process (step S12) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. When the folder list display process is executed, as shown in FIG. 6A, the address book data reading start position is set based on the record position specified in step S11, and the folder list display process end condition is set. Setting is performed (step S21). The end condition here is the number of folders that can be displayed in the display area of the display 3, the range of memory numbers to be displayed (end number), "A" to "O" when the names are in alphabetical order, etc. This is the range in the order of the Japanese syllabary order defined by

  After step S21, address data (telephone number or mail address) at the address book data reading position (record position) is acquired (step S22), and the number of received mails and the number of unopened mails are initialized to “0”. In step S23, the received mail corresponding to the address data is counted (step S24).

  When the mail count process in step S24 is executed, as shown in FIG. 6B, all the mail data 86 stored in the storage unit 80 are sequentially read (from i = 1 to END) (steps S31 to S31). S38) is performed.

  When the mail data reading loop is entered, the i-th sender is acquired from the mail data (step S32), and the acquired sender is collated with the address data acquired in step S22 (step S33). In step S34, it is determined whether or not the collation results match.

In step S34, if it is determined that they match, that is, if any of a plurality of communication destinations (mail addresses) read by specifying a record from the address book matches the mail sender, the number of received mails is Incremented (step S35), and if the “opened” flag indicating that the page has been viewed once is not stored in “open determination” (step S36: NO), the number of unopened mails is incremented (step S37). ) Go to the next loop.
In step S34, if there is no match (step S34: NO), the process proceeds to the next loop as it is. If there is a match but an “opened” flag is stored (step S36: Y), only the number of received mails is calculated. Increment and go to the next loop.
Through steps S35 and S37 described above, it is possible to count the presence or absence of browsing of the received mail that has been determined that any of the destination mail addresses matches the sender of the received mail.

  After the mail counting process in step S24, the folder name based on the name information at the record position is set, and the number of received mails and the number of unopened mails counted (incremented) in step S35 and step S36 are displayed ( In step S25, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied (step S26). If not satisfied (step S27), the reading position of the address book data is incremented and the process returns to step S22. (Step S12) ends.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, as a second embodiment, a configuration including folder management table data for managing a folder of received mail to be displayed will be described with reference to FIGS. For the sake of simplification, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, description thereof is omitted, and only the characteristic features of the second embodiment will be described.

  First, the configuration of data stored in the storage unit 80 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9A is a diagram schematically illustrating a configuration of data stored in the storage unit 80, and FIG. 9B is a diagram illustrating a memory map of the storage unit 80.

  As shown in FIG. 9A, the storage unit 80 stores therein a basic program 82, address book data 84, reception list table data 86a, mail text data 86b, folder management data 87, and various data areas 88. It is a configuration. As shown in FIG. 9B, the data stored in the storage unit 80 can be accessed for predetermined data by specifying a memory address as a pointer.

  Each record of the address book data 84 is configured to further store a “folder icon setting flag”. The “folder icon setting flag” stores information about the presence / absence of a folder corresponding to the name information in the record. When there is a folder corresponding to the name information, an address for referring to a record number indicating the corresponding folder in the folder management data 87 described later is stored.

  The mail data 86 is received list table data 86a for storing “reception date”, “title”, “mail body address”, “attached file address”, and “folder setting flag” as one record for each received mail. And mail text data 86b for storing information related to the mail text.

  In the reception list table data 86a, “text mail address” stores an address for referring to the text data corresponding to the received mail from the mail text data 86b. The “attached file address” stores an address for referring to the “attached file data” stored in the various data areas 88 when the received mail has an attached file. The “folder setting flag” stores information about the presence / absence of a folder corresponding to the received mail. If the corresponding folder exists, an address for referring to the record number indicating the corresponding folder in the folder management data 87 is stored.

  The folder management data 87 includes a “record number” to which a single number is assigned for each record, a “folder icon address” for storing the address of folder icon data (image data of a folder icon) stored in various data areas, and It consists of a “folder name address” that stores an address of name information of a predetermined record of the address book data 84 as a folder name. For this reason, the folder management data 87 can manage the display information of the folder at the time of displaying a list of received mails by a record for each folder, and the name of the folder to be displayed can be the name information of the address book data.

  The various data areas 88 include “folder icon data” for storing an icon image when a folder is displayed on the screen, “attached file data” for storing an attached file attached to the received mail, and the like.

  Next, folder setting processing based on the originator of the received mail and the address book data performed by the CPU 10 of the mobile phone 1 at the time when the mail is received will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the CPU 10 acquires the originator of the received mail (step S101), compares it with the mail address of the address book data 84 (step S102), and there is no matching mail address in the address book, that is, the address If the received mail cannot be displayed as a folder based on the book (step S103: N), the process ends.

  As a result of step S102, when it is determined that the record in which the mail address matching the sender is stored is in the address book data 84, whether or not the record setting flag is set, that is, the record It is determined whether or not a new folder is to be created (step S104).

  In step S104, when the folder icon setting flag is not set and a new folder is created (step S104: N), the folder name address referring to the name information in the record of the address book data 84 determined to match is set. The set new record is created in the folder management data 87 (step S105), and an address for referring to the newly created record number in the folder management data 87 is set in the folder icon setting flag of the address book data 84 (step S105). Step S106).

  After step S106 or when a new folder is not created (step S104: Y), the record setting newly created in the folder management data 87 is added to the folder setting flag of the received mail determined to match, or in step S104. An address for referring to the same record number as the record number referred to by the folder icon setting flag determined to be set is set (step S107), and the process ends.

  By the folder setting process described above, it is possible to store in the storage unit 80 the folder setting status based on the sender of the received mail and the address book data in advance. It is assumed that the above processing is executed when a mail is received. However, even when the address book data is updated, the above process may be performed for all received mail stored in the storage unit 80. Good. In this case, folder display according to the latest address book data can be performed.

  Next, a specific operation of the received mail display process performed by the CPU 10 of the mobile phone 1 will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the main flow of received mail display processing, FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the flow of folder list display processing (step S112), and FIG. 13 shows in-folder list display processing (step S114). ).

  First, the CPU 10 receives from the decision switch 5d of the input unit 5 an instruction input indicating which record number in the folder management data 87 the list is displayed from (step S111), and executes a folder list display process (step S112). .

  When the folder list display process (step S112) is executed, as shown in FIG. 12, a loop for reading the folder management data 87 with the designated record number designated in step S111 as the head (i = 1) is performed. (Steps S121 to S126).

  When entering the reading loop of the folder management data 87, the i-th record number is acquired (step S122), the folder is displayed with the name based on the folder name address in the record (step S123), and the reception list table data. The mail data in which the i-th record number is referenced in 86a, that is, the mail data belonging to the folder relating to the record number is counted including the number of read / unread based on the opened flag (step S124). The displayed data is displayed (step S125), and the process proceeds to the next loop. By the processing in step S123, the name based on the folder name address, that is, the name information of the address book data 84 can be displayed, and the display can be easily understood by the user.

  After the reading loop described above, mail data for which the folder setting flag is not set in the reception list table data 86a, that is, mail data that does not belong to a folder based on the address book data 84 is read / read based on the opened flag. Counting is performed including the unread number (step S127), and the counted number is displayed as the “others” folder (step S128), and the process is terminated.

  After step S112, a selection input (such as a record number of the folder management data 87) indicating which folder is to be displayed is received from the determination switch 5d of the input unit 5 (step S113), and the received mail related to the selected folder In-folder list display processing for displaying a list (step S114) is performed.

  When the in-folder list display process (step S114) is executed, as shown in FIG. 13, a loop (from i = 1 to END) for sequentially reading all mail data stored in the reception list table data 86a is performed. (Steps S131 to S135).

When the reading list table data 86a reading loop is entered, the i-th folder setting flag is acquired (step S132), and whether or not the folder setting flag matches the record number selected in step S112, that is, a selection is made. It is determined whether or not the mail data belongs to the selected folder (step S133). If they match (step S133: Y), the mail data list information is displayed (step S134), and the process proceeds to the next loop. .
If they do not match in step S133, the process proceeds to the next loop as it is.

  After step S114, processing similar to steps S15 to S17 of the first embodiment described above is performed in steps S115 to S117, and the process is terminated.

As described above, also in the second embodiment, an effect similar to that of the first embodiment described above, that is, a display screen similar to that in FIG. 8 can be obtained.
Furthermore, in the second embodiment, a folder icon setting flag can be set in advance in the address book data 84 by performing folder setting processing. For this reason, in the screen for confirming predetermined person data in the address book, when there is an instruction to display received mail, the list display process in the folder based on the folder icon setting flag of the record storing the person data (step By performing S114), the received mails from the person can be displayed as a list, so that convenience can be improved. Further, hierarchical display for each person can be performed by the folder list display process and the folder list display process.

  The present invention can be freely changed and improved without departing from the spirit of the invention. For example, in the present embodiment, the display of received information is exemplified by applying an e-mail system. However, it may be a display of incoming call history in voice communication or a communication log in a chat system, and includes information on a sender. It is possible to apply to the display of various received information.
