Description

Method for data service using the e-mail}

The present invention relates to a data service using e-mail, and more particularly, provides a certain amount of information by extracting the data desired by the customer from the database, and checks the data of the mail by checking whether or not the customer checks the mail. It is about a data service using e-mail that only sends the next data by mail.

Recently, as Internet users have soared, so has the number of Web sites that provide mail services. It's usually done by gathering subscriber addresses from places like Usenet discussion groups, or by purchasing addresses from companies that specialize in creating email distribution lists, and then sending a large amount of mail there. It is often regarded as spam mail by providing information that users do not want, and it is contaminated with line failure, slow speed, and virus dissemination. Since many people share the cost of maintaining the Internet, in general, except that the user bears some cost for the message, it is almost equivalent to an incoming phone call for the sale of unnecessary goods. Some of these spam e-mails come from users who actually sign up for information on a site, agreeing to check boxes to receive news about specific products or interests. However, in this case, since the question of interest in the information registration is comprehensive, the information received by the user does not exactly correspond to his or her requirements.

In addition, in the case of the existing mail data service for the purpose of learning, a predetermined amount is constantly sent regardless of the user's learning progress and capacity, and thus, unconfirmed mails are often thrown into the trash.

Accordingly, the present invention sequentially searches for the request information according to the profile of the customer and transmits the retrieved information sequentially, and provides the following information only when the customer checks the data of the mail. In the case of, you can adjust the progress according to your ability to have a significant effect on the learning efficiency.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, the customer's profile is stored in the database, the customer wants to extract the data from the database, the customer checks whether or not the customer checks the data only To provide a way to send a certain amount of the following data by mail.

Mail service method using the e-mail of the present invention for achieving the above object comprises the first step of the customer to access the web site to receive the information, fill out their profile according to the form and send to the service provider; A second step of the service provider storing the customer's profile in a customer database; A third step of searching for and extracting the customer's requirement information from an actual database; A fourth step of sending data to the customer by mail; And when the customer confirms the transmitted mail, a confirmation message is transmitted to the service server, and the service server includes searching for the next data among the selected information of the customer and transmitting the retrieved information back to the customer.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a mail service method using e-mail according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention described above will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a system configuration for carrying out the present invention.

In Fig. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a computer for a customer to create a profile and receives the data, 20 denotes a general Internet, 30 denotes a service server for providing a data service, and 35 denotes an electronic device according to the present invention. A database for storing customer profiles and search information for data services using mail is shown.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a data service method using e-mail according to the present invention.

First, the customer accesses the web site to receive the information, fills out his profile according to the form, and transmits it to the service provider (100).

The service provider stores the customer's profile in a customer database (200).

The customer's request information is searched and retrieved from an actual database (300).

The data is sent to the customer by mail (400).

When the customer checks the transmitted mail, a confirmation message is transmitted to the service server, and the service server re-searches the next data among the information predetermined by the customer and transmits the retrieved data to the customer again (500).

In step 100, the customer creates and transmits a basic profile and an auxiliary profile according to a form provided by accessing the service server 30 of the website through the Internet 20 using the computer 10, and the customer database. Connect with 35 to create and send your profile. In addition, according to the input form of the web site, it is checked whether all required input items and optional input items are entered, and it is connected with the customer database 35 to check whether there is a duplicate value with the input data value, and the customer database (35). ) To see if the same social security number exists.

In step 200, the field, format, validity or integrity, and consistency of the customer database are checked and stored in the customer database, and the required information is extracted from the customer's profile to transmit the data.

In step 300, the request information is searched in the database according to the customer profile, and the searched request information is transmitted. When the user receives a message that the user has confirmed the mail, the database retrieves the following information and sends the retrieved information.

In step 400, a mail form of a recipient, a subject, a content, and an attached form is generated and transmitted to the mail server. The mail server sends the message to the customer according to the recipient's mail address. If an error occurs, log it to a log file.

In step 500, the customer checks the mail using the mail client, and the confirmed mail sends a confirmation message to the server to receive the following information through the process of step 300.

Example

For example, if a customer wants to read 10 novels every day, he or she can access the service server 30 of a web site that provides information through the Internet 20, and then display the user's profile (name, address, age, hobbies, If you create a social security number, the required information "read novel", the amount to read at one time, etc., the service server stores the transmitted information in the database 35, and the customer's request in the stored database 35 based on the created profile When the information is found by searching, the desired information is searched in the database 35 containing the actual data, and the searched data is transmitted to the customer's computer 10. However, if the customer does not confirm the sent mail, the following information is not sent. On the contrary, when confirming the mail of the customer, a confirmation message is transmitted to the service server 30, and the service server 30 transmits the following data to the computer 10 of the customer. The above example can be equally applied to magazines, poems, general liberal arts, workbooks and technical books as well as novels.

In this way, customers receive the right amount of data they want, preventing mail bombs from being sent to specific people or systems, and avoiding simply filling up the disk space due to spam mail.

The mail service of the present invention as described above implements an interactive mail service by providing a differentiated service for each customer.

As described above, in the present invention, in the data service using e-mail, the customer's profile is stored in the database, and only the information desired by the customer is extracted from the database and provided, so that the mail provided to the customer is not spammed. In addition, by checking whether the data transmitted to the customer is confirmed or not and providing a method of sending a certain amount of the next data by e-mail only when the customer confirms the data, the customer can efficiently use the mail service.
