ABSTRACT:
Control is executed in such a manner that storage and forward exchange can be performed even when a communication message comprising media information sent from a communication terminal exceeds a predetermined message length, thus improving the utilization efficiency of the system as a whole. Specifically, when a mailbox registration request message addressed to one terminal is received by a mail processing apparatus through a communication controller upon having been sent from another terminal via a network, a main controller determines whether the received message exceeds a predetermined maximum message length. If it does, then it is determined if a media classification is indicative of image information. In case of image information, it is determined by a media table whether the terminal for which the message is destined is capable of receiving the image information. If this terminal is one capable of processing the image information, the message is sent to the terminal automatically by executing mail allotting processing. If the maximum message length is exceeded, the media information of the communication message is compressed and converted into a media information type capable of being processed by the terminal for which the message is destined. This makes it possible to store the communication message.
