ABSTRACT:
The decision unit leaves unacceptable mail in the mail server and stores the left mail number and message ID of the latest mail in the 1st RAM as left mail number K and left mail ID, respectively. In the next access, the decision unit acquires the message ID of the Kth mail stored in the mail server and compares it with the left mail ID. If both match, the "K+1"th and subsequent pieces of mail are received. Therefore, it distinguishes the left mail and new incoming mail, avoiding repeated reception of the left mail. This makes it possible to leave E-mail in the mail server using it as a secondary storage device and distinguish the left E-mail and new incoming E-mail in subsequent accesses.
