ABSTRACT:
A novel method of image communications with E-mail includes the steps of receiving, decoding, creating, attaching, and transmitting. The receiving step receives from a mail sender E-mail containing image information and including a request for a receipt acknowledgement. The decoding step decodes the image information contained in the E-mail. The creating step creates a return mail for acknowledging a receipt of the electronic mail. The attaching step attaches a predetermined page of the image information to the return mail. The transmitting step transmits the return mail back to the mail sender as a response to the request.
