ABSTRACT:
A facsimile/electronic-mail transforming system comprises a host unit linked through a network (LAN) to a plurality of other terminals as destinations of E-mails, and a facsimile unit connected directly to the host unit and also connected to the public telephone line. Other terminals outside the LAN sends E-mails through the public telephone line to the facsimile unit, which works as a gateway so that the E-mails are delivered to intended terminals on the LAN. When an originating terminal sends mail information, with destination indicating information being appended thereto, to the facsimile unit through the public telephone line, the information is received by the line controller and transferred through the interface to the host unit. In the host unit, the transferred information is received through the interface and saved in the storage. The main controller analyzes the destination indicating information to determine a destination terminal, and the mail information is delivered through the network controller to the destination terminal.
