Information distribution service system using mobile terminal device
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal device which communicates with a counterpart terminal device to implement an information distribution service, comprising:
- a server function part which is configured to provide the counterpart terminal device with information which is selected in advance;
an email control part which is configured to send a prompting email to the counterpart terminal device, receive a reply email from the counterpart terminal device responsive to the prompting email, and reply to the reply email from the counterpart terminal device with an access information email directed to the counterpart terminal device so as to establish connection with the counterpart terminal device; and
a server access control part which is configured to start the server function part to provide the information to the counterpart terminal device in accordance with a management table stored in a memory of the mobile terminal device describing an access method and a disclosure policy for the information,wherein the server function part is started on condition that the email control part receives the reply email from the counterpart terminal device, andwherein, upon start of the server function part, the server function part determines a communication port for communication with the counterpart terminal device, the communication port being determined dynamically such that the communication port is different from a previously determined port resulting from a prior starting of the server function part from a prior receiving of a prior reply email.

Abstract
An information distribution service system includes a mobile terminal device with a communication part and another terminal device connected to the mobile terminal device via the communication part. The mobile terminal device includes a server function part that provides information to another terminal device; an email control part that sends information, regarding an access method for accessing the information with another terminal device, to another terminal device via an email; and a server access control part that operates the server function part so as to start processing for providing the information when another terminal device makes an access according to the access method.

7. An information distribution service method adapted to a mobile terminal device which communicates with a counterpart terminal device, comprising:
-
designating information selected in advance to be accessible to the counterpart terminal device via a server function; establishing connection with the counterpart terminal device by sending a prompting email to the counterpart terminal device, receiving a reply email from the counterpart terminal device responsive to the prompting email, and replying to the reply email from the counterpart terminal device with an access information email directed to the counterpart terminal device; and on condition that the reply email from the counterpart terminal device, starting the server function to provide the information to the counterpart terminal device in accordance with a management table stored in a memory of the mobile terminal device describing an access method and a disclosure policy for the information, wherein, upon start of the server function, the server determines a communication port for communication with the counterpart terminal device, the communication port being determined dynamically such that the communication port is different from a previously determined port resulting from a prior starting of the server function from a prior receiving of a prior reply email. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19)
