1. A method for composition and transmission of an electronic mail message including:
- printing a document to facilitate composition and transmission of the electronic mail message;
composing the electronic mail message on the document utilizing a sensing device adapted to read coded data in the document when placed in an operative position relative to the document;
transmitting interaction data from the sensing device to a computer system, the interaction data representing interaction of the sensing device with the coded data to allow the message to be electronically captured in the computer system; and
transmitting the message to at least one recipient address,wherein the sensing device is further adapted to store a sensing device identifier which is adapted to distinguish the sensing device from other sensing devices of the same type.

21. A system for composition and transmission of an electronic mail message including:
-
a printer for printing a document with coded data, to facilitate composition and transmission of the electronic mail message; a sensing device for reading the coded data when placed in an operative position relative to the document and transmitting interaction data, representing interaction of the sensing device with the coded data to allow for electronic capture of the message, generated by moving the sensing device relative to the document; and a computer system for receiving the interaction data from the sensing device and transmitting the message to a recipient address, wherein the sensing device is further adapted to store a sensing device identifier which is adapted to distinguish the sensing device from other sensing devices of the same type. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
