The fear is reduced.
- FIG. 4 shows an example of a flowchart of the combined mail process according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
- the “combination rule” is set to “include the same character string in the subject”.
- the mails whose reception and / or transmission times are included within a predetermined time are combined. That is, in this case, the “combination rule” that “the subject is untitled and the transmission / reception time is included within a predetermined time” is further applied.
- step S21 the determination unit 150 determines whether a predetermined condition is satisfied (whether a predetermined event is detected). Since this determination is the same as in the first embodiment, description thereof is omitted.
- step S22 the mail processing unit 132 determines whether there are a plurality of mails with the same subject (title) (mails including the same character string in the subject) in the inbox and the transmission box, that is, combining It is determined whether there is an email corresponding to the rule. At this time, characters such as “Re;”, “Re; Re;” indicating reply mail to a certain mail and “Fw;” indicating forward mail included in the title are not considered. To do.
- step S22 If it is determined in step S22 that a mail corresponding to the “combination rule” exists, the process proceeds to step S23, and the mail processing unit 132 sets the subject (title) of the mail corresponding to the combination rule to be untitled (non-title). It is determined whether or not there is.
- the subject includes a character string such as “Untitled” or “nottle”, when the subject includes only the character such as “Re;”, or when the subject is blank, It is determined that the title is untitled (non-title).
- step S23 If it is determined in step S23 that the subject is untitled (non-title), the process proceeds to step S26, and the mail processing unit 132 receives a plurality of e-mails whose subject is untitled (non-title) within the specified time. It is determined whether an exchange (transmission or reception) has been performed. That is, if it is a received mail, it is determined whether or not the reception time is within a predetermined time, and if it is a transmission mail, it is determined whether or not the transmission time is within a predetermined time.
- the predetermined time can be arbitrarily designated by the user, for example, within one day or within two hours.
- step S26 If it is determined in step S26 that a plurality of emails with an untitled subject (non-title) are exchanges within a specified time, or if it is determined in step S23 that the subject is not untitled, the process proceeds to step S24.
- the mail processing unit 132 combines the corresponding mails and saves them as one combined mail. Thereafter, in step S ⁇ b> 25, the mail processing unit 132 deletes the combination source mail from the storage unit 120.
- a mode in which two “combination rules” of “contain the same character string in the subject” and “the subject is untitled and the reception and transmission times are included within a predetermined time” are combined.
- the “combination rule” may be “the subject is untitled and the reception / transmission time is included within a predetermined time” or only “the same character string is included in the subject”.
- FIG. 5 shows an example of a flowchart of the combined mail process according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
- step S31 the determination unit 150 determines whether or not a predetermined condition is satisfied (whether or not a predetermined event is detected). If the condition is satisfied, the mail processing unit 132 is determined in step S32. However, it is determined whether or not there are a plurality of e-mails that have the same destination as the destination and sender in the inbox and the outbox. Steps S31 and S32 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted. If it is determined in step S32 that there are a plurality of e-mails addressed to the same party in the inbox and transmission box, the process proceeds to step S33, and the mail processing unit 132 addresses the same party in step S32.
- -It is determined whether or not the mail as the sender is the mail with the same subject (title). If it is determined that emails addressed to the same party as the destination / sender have the same subject, the process proceeds to step S34, and the email processing unit 132 determines that the subject (title) of the email corresponding to the combination rule is untitled (non-title). It is determined whether or not.
- step S34 If it is determined in step S34 that the subject line of the mail with the same subject is untitled, and in step S33, it is determined that the mail with the same partner as the destination / sender is not the same subject (title). If so, the process proceeds to step S37. If the mail processing unit 132 determines that the subject is not the same subject (title) in step S33, the email that is determined not to have the same subject in step S37 is the email that was exchanged within the specified time. It is determined whether or not. In addition, when it is determined in step S34 that the same subject (title) is untitled, the mail processing unit 132 exchanged an untitled mail within the specified time in step S37. It is determined whether it is an email. Steps S33, S34, and S37 are the same as steps S22, S23, and S26 in the second embodiment, and thus description thereof is omitted.
- step S34 If it is determined in step S34 that the subject is not untitled, or if it is determined in step S37 that the communication is within the designated time, the mail processing unit 132 combines the mails corresponding to the combination rule. And save the merged mail (steps S35 and S36).
- FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the contents before the combined mail processing of the mail having the same destination and sender “User B”, which is outlined by hatching in FIG.
- the display screens D21 to D28 are labeled in the order in which emails are exchanged.
- the “specified time” in step S37 is set to be within one day by the user.
- step S32 the mail shown in FIG. 6 having the same destination and sender “User B”, which is hatched in FIG. 2, is selected.
- step S33 it is determined that the emails shown in the display screens D21 to D25 in FIG. 6 have the same subject, and in step S34, it is determined whether or not the subject is untitled. Since the mail subject shown in the display screens D21 to D25 is not untitled, it becomes a candidate for mail to be combined in step S35. Further, it is determined in step S33 that the mail on the display screen D26 in FIG. 6 does not have the same subject.
- step S37 it is determined whether or not the exchange is within the designated time. Since the mail on the display screen D26 is mail exchanged within one day of “2008/2/14” in the example of FIG. 6, it becomes a mail candidate to be combined in step S35.
- step S37 it is determined whether or not the mails on the display screens D27 and D28 are exchanges within the specified time. Since the mails on the display screens D27 and D28 are mails exchanged within one day of “2008/2/14” in the example of FIG. 6, they are mail candidates to be combined in step S35.
- the mails on the display screens D21 to D28 in FIG. 6 are combined as related mails in step S35 and stored in the storage unit 120 as one combined mail.
- step S36 the mails on the display screens D21 to D28 are deleted from the storage unit 120.
- FIG. 7 shows an example of combined mail (combined mail).
- FIG. 7 is a combination of the mails shown on the display screens D21 to D28 in FIG. As shown in the figure, it is preferable that the combined mail displays the destination / sender, the date / time when the message was exchanged, the start / end time, the subject, and the contents of the message in the order of the exchange time. is there.
- FIG. 7A shows a state in which the entire text of the combined mail is displayed
- FIG. 7B shows a state in which only the destination / sender, transmission / reception time, and subject are displayed.
- FIG. 7A shows a state in which the entire text of the combined mail is displayed
- FIG. 7B shows a state in which only the destination / sender, transmission / reception time, and subject are displayed.
- the text of the selected mail can be referred to. It is preferable to do so.
- FIG. 8 shows an example of a display screen of the inbox and the send box after the mail is combined.
- information indicating that the combined mail is a combined mail ("combined mail", number of combined mails, sender / destination, subject, date, and reception time) is displayed in the inbox. Saved.
- the reception box and the transmission box before combining shown in FIG. 2 with FIG. 8 the mail before combining whose destination / sender is “user B” is shown in display screens D41 and D42, respectively. Has been removed from the box. Therefore, the number of stored mails is reduced by 3 for the inbox and 4 for the transmission box compared to before the merge.
- the combined mail may be stored in a transmission box or a reception box, or a storage box dedicated to the combined mail may be prepared and stored there.
- the present invention is not limited to this.
- a mail having the same subject is transmitted to a plurality of destinations (for example, simultaneous transmission, etc.) and a reply mail is received from each of the plurality of destinations, the number of received mails is larger. Therefore, even when the above combination rule is applied only to received mail, a series of related mails can be combined.
- the present invention is sufficiently effective even when only receiving mail is targeted.
- the effect can be further enhanced by including the transmission of mail as in the above-described embodiment.
- the case where the input by the user of performing a joint process is detected as a predetermined event can also be included.
