Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In the present invention, it is possible to register a message by logging into the specified system and inputting at least two pieces of partner information (first name, last name, date of birth). However, in that case, it becomes possible to confirm the contents from a third party having the same information, and anyone other than a specific partner can receive it if the first and last name and date of birth are known. In order to prevent this, the sender can register a plurality of questions and answers of about 1 to 20. Of course, these questions and answers must be something that the recipient can answer. If the receiver can correctly answer an arbitrary number of questions determined by the sender, the receiver is determined to be the person himself and can receive a message or the like. However, even if it is a real recipient, there are cases where the question cannot be answered. Therefore, the receiver can ask the sender for a hint for the question only when the sender permits.
However, the sender is not obligated to answer that question. For example, there may be a case where a third party asks a question while impersonating the recipient. Therefore, the sender is free to reply to this question. In order to receive this question, the sender can register as a user in advance, log in to the system with the user name and password, and always check whether the question is addressed to himself / herself. Even if the question is answered, there is no means for transmitting a message to the recipient unless the recipient logs in to the system again.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As a conventional example, direct mail transmission can be distributed to an unspecified number of recipients based on the information of the other party's mail address, but it is difficult to send to a specific other party. . In addition, when using an e-mail system, even an acquaintance cannot send a message unless the e-mail address of the other party is known. Furthermore, it is unclear whether the e-mail address can be changed and will remain unchanged in the future. In particular, if you want to leave a message that you want to open at some point in the future, even if the mail address has been changed even in a system that delivers mail after a specified date, transmission is impossible.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In general, it is highly probable that an unspecified number of people will log in to the system asking "Are there any messages for me?" In many cases, people seem more interested in reading than writing. If that is a message to you, your expectations are even greater. Therefore, assuming that the recipient frequently checks this system, it is not appropriate to use a user name or password that can be forgotten as in the past, and it is possible to check the incoming call only with the name and date of birth. is necessary.
[0004]
If you can identify yourself, you can then contact the other party by other means. Therefore, the number of characters in the message from the sender may be about 100 to 200 characters. However, since important information is dangerous from the viewpoint of security, if you send simple information such as the sender's e-mail address, mobile phone number, name, date of birth, etc. to the recipient, the other party will contact you. Will be able to wait.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
This system can send and receive e-mails, messages, files, etc. based on limited information such as the person's name and date of birth to a specific person whose location or whereabouts is unknown System. Further, in this system, it is possible to set information transmission start date and time to any specific date and time on the current day or several years in the future, and to distribute information to a specific destination from that date and time.
In this way, the alias was named “Eternity Mail Service” as a system that handles “information that it is unknown when the other party receives”. Furthermore, since the sender / receiver who uses this system sees a specific advertisement, it is possible to obtain advertising revenues and options (all except basic services including annual membership fees) usage fees. Become.
The following items are proposed as examples of information from the sender.
(1) Sender name: Name to be displayed to the other party. (Recipients can use a name other than their real name if they can identify the sender)
(2) Recipient's name: Taro Yamada (nomination that the recipient should enter)
(3) Date of birth of the recipient: January 1, 1965 (4) Question (1): Name of the kindergarten you attended Answer (1): XX kindergarten (5) Question (2): Passed by you Name of elementary school answer ▲ 2 ▼: XX elementary school (6) Question ▲ 3 ▼: Real name answer of your friend XX (nickname) ▲ 3 ▼: XXXXX
(7) Question (4): A place I went on a high school graduation trip Answer (4): ○○ ××
(8) Question (5): Name of a friend who I (sender) and you (recipient) know together Answer (5): ○○ ××
(9) Whether to receive a question from the recipient: Receive (A) Number of answers to the question: 4 (or more)
[0006]
In the above information items, items (1) to (3) are essential. In this example, five questions and answers of items (4) to (8) are prepared, and in the item (A), four or more answers are requested. If the receiver can answer these questions correctly, the sender can determine that the sender is correct, display a message to the receiver, and send and receive files.
[0007]
In the information example item (A), “the number of answers to the question” may be 0, but in this case, the recipient's first and last name and date of birth can be received from a coincident third party. It is unknown whether the other party is receiving. At the same time, the same applies to the case where the question can be examined by a third party. Therefore, the content of the question is best that only the sender and the receiver know.
When receiving a question from the recipient according to item (9), the sender can check by logging in to the system with the user ID and password. In this way, the receiver does not need user registration, but the sender needs to perform user registration in advance.
Of course, if the receiver does not receive a question, the recipient has no means to ask the sender any questions. In such a case, the sender and the receiver decide the password (password) in advance, add the item “What is the password?” To the question, and share the answer with each other, the effect Will be able to demonstrate.
[0008]
When the receiver receives the message, the receiver can send a “reception complete” notification to the sender at the discretion of the receiver. This may be a case where the receiver does not want to tell the sender that the reception has been completed, even if the receiver can receive the message, in order to protect against stalking. Therefore, the receiver can decide whether or not to notify the sender by his / her own intention, and at the same time can delete the received content. Whether or not to notify the sender of the deletion is arbitrary for the receiver.
As will be described later, when the sender is a free user, the number of counterparts that can be sent is limited to a small number. Further, the sender cannot determine whether or not the call has arrived without notifying that the receiver has received the message. Of course, it is possible for the sender to delete the message, but it is impossible for the sender to determine whether or not the receiver actually viewed the message and whether or not the message was ignored.
[0009]
User registration is essential for the sender. For a certain period of time after user registration, as a free service, a notice such as “Your message has not arrived” is sent to the user after that period, and the message is deleted and the process ends. Similarly, within the free service period, user credentials and messages may be deleted unless they log in once on a specific day.
The paid service does not have the above-mentioned limitation, and the number of messages that can be transmitted is different. In addition, for example, even when only free users continue to increase, it is possible to obtain advertising revenue on the login page. In particular, free users will want to keep messages. Therefore, since you log in frequently, you will see advertisements each time.
The paying user collects about 3600 yen as an annual fee, and the information of the message during that period is retained regardless of whether or not the user has logged in.
[00010]
This system basically does not disclose any content related to privacy. However, some “trend” content as information may be disclosed for a fee.
