Description

Control method of e-mail lists.

The present invention provides a method for more efficiently managing e-mail sent and received based on any user stored in an e-mail server computer. It consists of an email address or name item, an email's title item, a date item, and other items needed for management. When you click on any one of these items or create a new item and click on a newly created item , A means to simply insert a note (similar to inserting a note by selecting "Insert note" from the pop-up menu that appears when you right-click on a cell in Excel, one of Microsoft Office's MS Office-supplied documents). Of the memo at the appropriate item location using the The present invention relates to an e-mail list management method capable of more efficiently managing an e-mail list by inserting a dragon and placing a mouse point on an item input by the above means, so that the memo content is displayed on the screen.

At home and abroad, when managing incoming and outgoing mails such as hanmail, empas mail, naver mail, and google mail, the sender items and emails that normally indicate who the sender and receiver are There is a title item indicating what the subject is, a date item indicating when the message was sent and received, a file size item indicating the file size of the email sent and received, and other items.

All of these measures are designed to provide email users with manageability, but there may be things that you might want to put on hold for some emails, do some work as a predecessor for some emails, Its expiration date has passed, but to some extent it is necessary to read the contents from time to time, and because some emails are not immediately available, but there is no means to record and maintain a variety of things, such as the need to send a return mail by some time. The problem is that it is difficult to manage e-mail efficiently.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the problem of not being able to manage emails more efficiently in the current email management system as described above, and an object of the present invention is to provide a name item representing a person who has transmitted / received an email; Notes that can be inserted simply by clicking on any one of the title items, date items, size items, and other items, or by creating additional new items except those listed above, and clicking on the newly created items. Providing an inserting means, inserting the memo content at an appropriate item position using the memo inserting means, and displaying the content of the memo on the screen when the mouse point is located at the item inputted by the means or the button of the mouse is clicked; By doing so, it is as if payment of documents is completed, payment is pending, It is to provide an email list management method that can manage emails more efficiently by providing a means for classifying the email list in various ways, such as classifying the judgment result of the payer such as re-cancellation.

E-mail list management method according to the present invention for achieving the above object is any one of a name item, a title item, a date item, a size item and other items indicating the person who has sent and received the e-mail or listed above A note that creates additional new items except items, and manages notes such as inserting, editing, saving, and deleting notes when the mouse point is placed on the newly created item and clicking the left or right mouse button. Management means; Whether or not the mouse point is positioned on the item in which the memo is stored by the memo management means is displayed on the screen, or the mouse point is located or not in the item in which the memo is stored by the memo management means. Regardless of whether the contents of the memo are always displayed on the screen or when the mouse point is positioned on the item where the memo is stored by the memo management means and the left or right button is clicked, the memo contents are displayed on the screen. Way; And an e-mail server computer that controls the memo management means and the memo content output means.

The memo management means may include memo input means capable of inputting a memo; Memo editing means capable of editing an input memo; Memo deleting means for deleting a memo input or edited and stored; Memo display means for selecting to always display the contents of the memo on the screen even if the point of the mouse is not located; And a memo hiding means for selecting to display the contents of the memo on the screen only when the point of the mouse is positioned. The memo input means, the memo editing means, the memo deleting means, the memo display means and the memo hiding means may be provided as a menu of a screen or a pop-up window that appears when a right button of a mouse is clicked on a corresponding item. If a memo has already been entered for the corresponding item, the memo editing means, the memo deleting means, the memo display means, and the memo hiding means appear in the menu of the screen that appears when the right mouse button is clicked. Otherwise, the menu of the screen displayed when the right mouse button is clicked has a feature of displaying a menu of the memo input means.

Third, it seems that it is not different from the existing e-mail management system, but since the memo can be inserted and managed in terms of contents, it is effective to utilize more information than the e-mail management system.

When described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment according to the present invention.

1 is a flowchart illustrating an email management process of an email management system to which an email list management method of the present invention is applied.

As illustrated in FIG. 1, an email management process of an email management system is performed by placing a mouse point on an arbitrary item among a name item, a title item, a date item, a size item, and other items indicating a person who has sent and received an email (100). If there is a memo already stored, the corresponding memo content is displayed on the screen (102), and if there is no memo stored, there is no screen display. Of course, the method of outputting the contents of the memo differs depending on how the memo display means and the memo hide means are set, but it is described here on the assumption that it is set as the memo hide means by default.

If you place the mouse point on any item and click the right button of the mouse (103), first check whether the memo already stored in the item exists (104), and if the memo does not exist, click the right mouse button. In the pop-up window that appears when you select "insert a note" (105), open a new window for inserting notes (106) to enter and save the contents of the memo (107), and check whether the stored memo exists ( 104) If there is an existing saved memo, the administrator can proceed with the desired operation by selecting "Edit Note", "Delete Note", "Show Note" or "Hide Note" in the pop-up window.

First, when selecting a memo edit in the pop-up window (108), the contents of the memo is already taken (109) to edit and save the content of the memo (110), and second, if you select to delete the memo in the pop-up window (111), deletes the memo that has already been stored from the storage device (112), and thirdly, if the memo display is selected in the pop-up window (113), whether the administrator's mouse point is located in the item in which the memo content is input; Always show the contents of the note on the screen regardless of whether it is located (114), change the pop-up window menu from show memo to hide memo (115), and, fourth, select hide memo in the pop-up window (116), The memo that was always visible on the screen disappears from the screen (117), and the contents of the memo are displayed on the screen only when the administrator's mouse point is located on the item where the memo is input. Change from hide mode to note display (118).

When the email management method of the present invention is applied to an existing email management system, not only users who have few emails sent or received, but also those who have dozens or hundreds of emails sent and received have a feature that makes email management very efficient. .
