If approved (Yes in S70), the user's mobile terminal A60 downloads the file including the contents of the e-mail and attachments from the WAP server A40 by referring to the path of the converted file included in the CallBack SMS. The mobile terminal A60 recognizes the format of the downloaded file and drives the viewer program in the mobile terminal (S80). The viewer program outputs the downloaded file to the screen of the mobile terminal A60 so that the user can check the contents of the e-mail transmitted to the actual mail server A30 and the attached file (S100).

4 is a process flowchart of an email clipper system between a WAP server and a portable terminal according to the present invention. As mentioned above, the server linkage email clipper system is illustrated. As shown in Fig. 4, the user accesses the WAP server A40 using the wired Internet network A20, and uses the setting function in the clipper program in the WAP server A40, and the user's mobile terminal number and mail server. When the POP3 setting and the allow list are set (P10), the mailer (A30) is connected to the mail server (A30) using the POP3 protocol of the mail server (A30) set at the time specified by the clipper program (P20). The new e-mail included in the list is checked with reference to the reception permission list in the list and downloaded to a specific folder of the WAP server A40 (P30).

The e-mail downloaded to the WAP server A40 classifies the e-mail content portion and the attachment file portion by the clipper program in the WAP server. The e-mail content and the attached file can be recognized by the viewer program of the user's mobile terminal. The file format is converted (P40).

As described above, the contents and the attached file of the e-mail converted by the clipper program are converted into a file format that can be downloaded through the wireless Internet network of the mobile communication company after the WAP server A40 identifies the mobile communication company of the user's mobile terminal.

When the converted file is stored in the database managed by the SMS sending module in the WAP server A40, the SMS sending module first receives a new e-mail to the user's mobile terminal A60 and downloads the converted file. And callback SMS including the download path of the converted file is sent (P50).

This CallBack SMS contains a message asking the user whether to download the converted file, a brief description of the email before the conversion, and information about the sender of the email. This allows the user to check the contents of the CallBack SMS and know that there is an email sent to him.

If the user checks the callback SMS sent to the mobile terminal A60, and refuses to download the converted file of the contents of the e-mail and the attached file (“No” in P60), when the transmission is completed in that state, the user No information is transmitted any more to the mobile terminal A60 of FIG.

Apart from the above, the user checks the CallBack SMS transmitted to the mobile terminal A60, determines that the mail is necessary, and presses the confirmation (or access) button on the mobile terminal to download the converted file of the email content and the attached file. If approved ("Yes" in P60), the user's mobile terminal A60 downloads the file containing the contents of the e-mail and attachments from the WAP server A40 by referring to the path of the converted file included in the CallBack SMS. The portable terminal A60 recognizes the format of the downloaded file and drives the viewer program in the portable terminal (P70). The viewer program outputs the downloaded file to the screen of the mobile terminal A60 so that the user can check the contents of the e-mail transmitted to the actual mail server A30 and the attached file (P90).

5 is a detailed process flow diagram inside an email clipper program. As shown in Fig. 5, the clipper program of the user's PC A10 or the WAP server A40 uses the user's mobile terminal number, the POP3 setting of the mail server, and the e-mail allowance list. The user accesses the previously set mail server using the POP3 protocol and the user's email ID and password (Q10).

From the mail server connected as above, check whether there are any e-mails sent from the e-mail list by referring to the allowed e-mail list of the clipper program among all e-mails sent to the user's e-mail account (Q20). In this case, a copy of the e-mail allowed to be downloaded is downloaded to a separate storage space of the user's PC or the WAP server through the wired Internet network (Q30).

The downloaded e-mail is classified into a content part and an attachment of an e-mail by a clipper program in the user's PC A10 or the WAP server A40 (Q40), and the classified information is individually classified into a WAP server ( A40) is stored in a specific folder (Q50), the contents of the stored email and the attached file is converted into HTML (Hyper Text Markup language) document first by the conversion module in the clipper program, Compressed and converted into a file format suitable for the viewer program of the mobile terminal A60, and the attached file portion of the classified email is immediately compressed and converted into a file format suitable for the viewer program of the portable terminal (Q60).

In the case of the user's PC A10 storing the converted file as described above, the converted file is transferred to the WAP server A40 through the wired Internet network A20, and the converted file itself is converted. The WAP server A40, which stores the file or the converted file received from the user's PC A10, checks the option of the automatic mail delivery function in the clipper program set by the user individually.
