Abstract

A control-information receiving unit receives first control information including information relating to an e-mail from a mail server. A control-information transmitting unit transmits either of the second control information relating to a request for setting a communication path and third control information relating to a rejection of communication to the mail server. When it is determined to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail, the control-information transmitting unit transmits the second control information to the mail server; and when it is determined to reject the reception of the e-mail the control-information transmitting unit transmits the third control information to the mail server.

Claims

1. A communication terminal that, upon receiving first control information relating to a request for preparing a reception of an e-mail from a mail server, transmits second control information relating to a request for setting a communication path to the mail server, and receives the e-mail via the communication path set by the mail server, the communication terminal comprising:

a control-information receiving unit that receives the first control information from the mail server, the first control information including information relating to the e-mail; and

a control-information transmitting unit that transmits either of the second control information and third control information relating to a rejection of communication to the mail server, wherein

when it is determined to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail, the control-information transmitting unit transmits the second control information to the mail server, and

when it is determined to reject the reception of the e-mail the control-information transmitting unit transmits the third control information to the mail server.

2. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the control-information transmitting unit receives an input of a result of determination whether to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail from a user,

when the result of determination is to permit the reception of the e-mail, the control-information transmitting unit transmits the second control information to the mail server, and

when the result of determination is to reject the reception of the e-mail, the control-information transmitting unit transmits the third control information to the mail server.

3. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein

the control-information transmitting unit determines whether to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail,

when a determination is to permit the reception of the e-mail, control-information transmitting unit transmits the second control information to the mail server, and

when the determination is to reject reception of the e-mail, control-information transmitting unit transmits the third control information to the mail server.

4. The communication terminal according to claim 1, wherein the information relating to the e-mail includes information relating to an e-mail address of a sender, a title of the e-mail, and an outline of a main body of the e-mail.

5. A communication terminal that transmits control information relating to a request for setting a communication path to a mail server that determines whether to permit a transmission of an e-mail, and transmits the e-mail via the communication path set by the mail server, the communication terminal comprising:

a control-information creating unit that creates the control information including either of information relating to an e-mail to be permitted and information relating to an e-mail to be rejected; and

a control-information transmitting unit that transmits the control information created to the mail server.

6. A communication method of, upon receiving first control information relating to a request for preparing a reception of an e-mail from a mail server, transmitting second control information relating to a communication path setting request to the mail server,-and receiving the e-mail via the communication path set by the mail server, the communication method comprising:

creating the first control information including information relating to the e-mail at the mail server;

transmitting the first control information created from the mail server;

receiving the first control information from the mail server; and

transmitting either of the second control information and third control information relating to a rejection of communication to the mail server, wherein

when it is determined to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the second control information to the mail server, and

when it is determined to reject the reception of the e-mail the control-information transmitting unit the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the third control information to the mail server.

7. The communication method according to claim 6, wherein

the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes receiving an input of a result of determination whether to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail from a user,

when the result of determination is to permit the reception of the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the second control information to the mail server, and

when the result of determination is to reject the reception of the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the third control information to the mail server.

8. The communication method according to claim 6, wherein

the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information further includes determining whether to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail,

when a determination is to permit the reception of the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the second control information to the mail server, and

when the determination is to reject the reception of the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the third control information to the mail server.

9. The communication method according to claim 6, wherein the information relating to the e-mail includes information relating to an e-mail address of a sender, a title of the e-mail, and an outline of a main body of the e-mail.

10. A communication method of, when a communication terminal transmits control information relating to a request for setting a communication path to a mail server that determines whether to permit a transmission of an e-mail, transmitting the e-mail via the communication path set by the mail server, the communication method comprising:

creating the control information including either of information relating to an e-mail to be permitted and information relating to an e-mail to be rejected;

transmitting the control information created to the mail server; and

determining whether to permit a transmission of the e-mail to the communication terminal based on either of the information relating to the e-mail to be permitted and the information relating to the e-mail to be rejected.

11. A computer-readable recording medium that stores a communication program for, upon receiving first control information relating to a request for preparing a reception of an e-mail from a mail server, transmitting second control information relating to a communication path setting request to the mail server, and receiving the e-mail via the communication path set by the mail server, wherein the communication program makes a computer execute

creating the first control information including information relating to the e-mail at the mail server;

transmitting the first control information created from the mail server;

receiving the first control information from the mail server; and

transmitting either of the second control information and third control information relating to a rejection of communication to the mail server, wherein

when it is determined to permit the reception of the e-mail based on the information relating to the e-mail, the transmitting either of the second control information and third control information includes transmitting the second control information to the mail server, and
