When the mail processing operation control unit 23 receives a notification that the electronic mail has been received from the mail reception control unit 21, the mail processing operation control unit 23 executes a mail reception notification process shown in the flowchart of FIG.

When the mail reception report processing is started, the mail processing operation control unit 23 initializes a subscript Key_num indicating a storage position of a keyword (step S1). Here, the subscript Key_num indicates a storage position of a keyword to be searched in the operation description table 30 stored in the storage unit 4.

The lexical analysis processing section 22 acquires character information from the electronic mail received from the mail reception control section 21 (step S2). More specifically, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 acquires a subject part of the e-mail received from the mail reception control unit 21 or a predetermined part of the e-mail character information including the subject and the body. For example, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 converts the character information indicating the subject of the received e-mail, which corresponds to 128 bytes from the beginning, into ASCII (American Standard Code for Informa).
Action Interchange) code. Or,
The lexical analysis processing unit 22 acquires, as the ASCII code, the character information corresponding to 128 bytes from the top of the character information indicating the subject and the body of the received e-mail. The lexical analysis processing unit 22 stores the acquired 128-byte character information in, for example, a character array rx_mail [α] (α: an integer of 1 to 128).

The mail processing operation control unit 23 uses the subscript Key_nu
m is incremented by 1 (step S3), and it is determined whether or not the subscript Key_num is equal to or smaller than the subscript Key_all indicating the total number of keywords registered in the operation description table 30 (step S4). Thereby, the mail processing operation control unit 23 specifies the keywords to be searched according to the order stored in the storage unit 4, so that the lexical analysis processing unit 22 includes the keywords in the e-mail in descending order of priority. It is possible to determine whether or not it is performed.

The mail processing operation control unit 23 uses the subscript Key_nu
If it is determined that m is larger than the subscript Key_all (step S4
NO), the mail reception notification process shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5 is terminated, and the normal mail reception process is executed.

On the other hand, the mail processing operation control unit 23
If it is determined that Key_num is equal to or smaller than the subscript Key_all (YES in step S4), the subscript Key_num is converted to the lexical analysis processing unit 2.
Notify 2. The lexical analysis processing unit 22 acquires a keyword corresponding to the subscript Key_num from the operation description table 30 stored in the storage unit 4 (Step S5). For example, assuming that the operation description table 30 stored in the storage unit 4 can register a keyword composed of a 10-byte ASCII code, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 sets the subscript Key_num
To get the keyword corresponding to the character array keyword
[β] (β: an integer from 1 to 10).

The lexical analysis processing section 22 has a character array rx_mail
The character information stored in [α] is searched (step S6),
It is determined whether or not the character string stored in the character array keyword [β] is included (step S7). That is, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 determines whether the received e-mail contains a keyword. As described above, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 determines whether or not each of the keywords stored in the storage unit 4 is included in the character information acquired from the electronic mail. The lexical analysis processing unit 22 notifies the mail processing operation control unit 23 of the determination result.

The mail processing operation control unit 23 determines from the notification received from the lexical analysis processing unit 22 that the received e-mail does not include the keyword (step S7).
NO), the process returns to step S3.

On the other hand, when the mail processing operation control section 23 determines that the received electronic mail includes a keyword (YES in step S7), the mail processing operation control section 23 reads the subscript from the operation description table 30 stored in the storage section 4. Data indicating an operation corresponding to Key_num is obtained (step S8).

The mail processing operation control section 23 executes processing in accordance with the acquired data, so that the vibration generation section 6 and / or the display section 7 and / or the sound output section 8 and the like are provided via the user interface section 10. Is controlled to output a reception report for notifying the user that the e-mail has been received (step S9). That is, the mobile telephone device 100 includes a vibration generation unit 6, a display unit 7, and a voice output unit 8
Executes a reception notification operation according to the keyword included in the electronic mail, thereby notifying the user that the electronic mail has been received.

After that, the mail processing operation control section 23 terminates the mail reception notification processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5, and stores the electronic mail in the mail storage area (not shown) of the storage section 4 or the like. Execute mail reception processing.
That is, the mail processing operation control unit 23 terminates the search for the character information by the lexical analysis processing unit 22, and shifts to processing for receiving a normal electronic mail.

For example, if “fishing” is registered as the fourth keyword in the action description table 30 and “game” is registered as the fifth keyword, an e-mail containing the character string “fishing game” is Mobile telephone device 10
Assume that 0 has been received. In this case, when the subscript Key_num is 4, the lexical analysis processing unit 22 determines that the keyword “fishing” is included in the electronic mail (Step S).
7).

The mail processing operation control unit 23 uses the subscript Key_nu
Data indicating the notification operation corresponding to m = 4 is obtained from the operation description table 30 (step S8), and the notification operation corresponding to the keyword “fishing” is executed to notify the user that the e-mail has been received. (Step S9). Here, since the keyword “game” has a lower priority than the keyword “fishing” (subscript Key_num is large), the notification operation corresponding to the keyword “game” is not executed, and the mail processing operation control unit 23 Then, the mail reception report processing ends.

As described above, according to the present invention,
To register a keyword and data indicating an operation corresponding to the keyword in the operation description table 30, determine whether the received e-mail includes the keyword, and notify the user that the e-mail has been received. Operation can be switched.

The setting of the priority is not invalidated even when the e-mail is transmitted and received by the user.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications and applications are possible. For example, in the above embodiment, when an e-mail includes a keyword having a different priority (subscript Key_num), only a reception report corresponding to a keyword having a higher priority is described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. . For example, a combination of keywords having different priorities is registered as a new keyword in the operation description table 30, and when an e-mail including all of the combined keywords is received, a reception report corresponding to the combination is made. You may.

The received message is displayed on the display unit 7 to display an image indicating the incoming character, the vibration generating unit 6 is operated to vibrate the mobile telephone device 100, and the received electronic message is received. It may include a process of immediately displaying character information indicating the contents of the mail on the display unit 7.

In this case, “jump” is provided as an operation menu while an image showing a list of operations as shown in FIG. 3C is displayed, and the operation at the time of mail reception is set in the operation description table 30. As the indicated data, data indicating the coordinates X and Y of the processing node (for example, the processing node “detailed display”) in the menu tree as shown in FIG. 6 is stored. The mail processing operation control unit 23 acquires the data when the mail reception control unit 21 receives the electronic mail and acquires data indicating the coordinates X and Y of the processing node from the operation description table 30 according to the determination result of the lexical analysis processing unit 22. According to the data, the processing when the e-mail is received is jumped. Here, if the data indicating the coordinates X and Y of the processing node that causes the display unit 7 to immediately display the content of the received e-mail is stored in the action description table 30 in association with the keyword, the keyword is included. When an e-mail is received, character information indicating the contents of the e-mail can be displayed immediately.
