ABSTRACT:
A user A sends electronic mail addressed to a user B. A mail server then receives the electronic mail sent from the user A and sends it to a publishing server. Upon receiving the electronic mail, the publishing server extracts a specific type of electronic mail from the received electronic mail based on a filtering condition and publishes the extracted electronic mail. Then, the publishing server returns to the mail server the electronic mail which has not been extracted. The users C and D are thus able to read the published electronic mail by accessing the publishing server. It is therefore possible to publish the mail without needing to perform a complicated operation, thereby reducing effort.
