Abstract:
    The present invention provides apparatus and method for automatically categorizing received mail messages. According to the apparatus and method, the importance of a received mail message is determined. Depending on the determined result, a reply mail message is sent. Alternatively, user is periodically notified of the received mail message. As a result, user can easily send a reply mail message or perform a callback. A controlling portion determines whether a sender mail address added to a received mail message or character information contained in a title of the received mail message has been registered with a memory. When the sender mail address or the character information has been registered, the received mail message is considered as an important mail message. Corresponding to schedule data recorded in the memory, a reply mail message is sent or user is notified of the received mail message using an audio alarm.
