  D. The e-mail sending unit 14 sends a mail to the mail address “su-san @” found in C. At this time, the mail address “yamasan @” of the sender telephone 1 is added to the mail as well as the destination “su-san @” as the source address.

  In the receiving side telephone 2, the incoming call detection unit 22 detects an incoming call from the telephone network (E in FIG. 3).

  F. After detecting the incoming call, the control unit 23 waits for a few seconds (WAIT) to confirm whether or not the e-mail receiving unit 24 receives the mail.

  G. The E-mail receiving unit 24 receives mail via the IP network during a waiting period of several seconds. This mail data includes the mail address “yamasan @” of the transmitting side telephone 1.

  H. The address comparison unit 26 searches the mail transmission source by referring to the list of the address registration unit 25 based on the destination mail address “yamasan @” received by the E-mail reception unit 24. As a result, “Mr. Yamada” is found to be the transmission source.

  I. The display unit 21 displays “Yamada-san” of the mail transmission source, which is the search result in the address comparison unit 26.

  J. et al. The speaker unit 27 sounds a ring tone.

  As a result of the above, Mr. Suzuki knows that a call has been received by ringing the ringtone, and can know that the other party of the call is Mr. Yamada from the display on the display unit 21 without a contract for the number display.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 4, a case will be described in which the information on the transmission side telephone 1 is not registered in the address registration unit 25 of the reception side telephone 2. In this case, the process from the destination input A to the mail reception (mail address “yamasan @”) G by the E-mail receiving unit 24 is the same as that described in FIG. Since the mail address “yamasan @” is not registered, the address comparison unit 26 cannot find the mail transmission source.

Therefore, when the user X of the transmission side telephone 50 inputs the telephone number “9876” of the reception side telephone 2 from the information input part 51 (A in FIG. 5), the telephone number “9876” from the calling part 52. Is sent to the telephone network (FIG. 5B). However, since the transmitting telephone 50 does not have a mail transmission function, no mail is transmitted.

  In the receiving side telephone 2, the incoming call detection unit 22 detects an incoming call (E in FIG. 5), and the control unit 23 waits for a few seconds (F) (F in FIG. 5). The mail is not received by the unit 24 (G ′ in FIG. 5). Therefore, the address comparison unit 26 cannot search for the other party (H in FIG. 5), and after waiting several seconds in the control unit 23, the display unit 21 displays that the other party is unknown (I ′ in FIG. 5). ) And a ringtone is generated by the speaker unit 27 (J in FIG. 5).

  The operation in FIG. 5 corresponds to a call from a public telephone or the like.
