Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for handling email is described. The method includes the step of re-transmitting a sent email to the originating sender where an intervening check of specified transmission criteria is included. In a preferred embodiment, the transmission criteria may include checking the email for content, any required attachments and the like. In response to such transmission criteria, the user can elect to send the email with or without amendment. In an alternative embodiment, the method checks for the presence of the sender in the cc: bcc: or to: list and depending on the inclusion of the sender, the system proceeds with sending the email or resubmits it for a checking step. The invention can be applied to a variety of system architectures including networks, client/server systems and the like.
