Abstract

Apparatus for receiving, for example, E-mail messages and displaying the messages on a television screen. A message is received, for example, via the television aerial, and passed to the apparatus which includes an E-mail Handling Unit (EHU) (10). The EHU identifies the user ID included in the message and compares the ID with ID's stored in its memory. If the user ID matches one of the stored ID's, the message is decrypted and stored. A marker is laid over the television screen (12) to indicate to the user that a message is waiting to be read. The user can then select to read the message by displaying it on the television screen.
