Abstract

When sending electronic mail, a sender designates the payer of the communications fee for the transmission between an electronic mail center and a receiver, that is, the sender or the receiver. When the receiver accesses the electronic mail center, the electronic mail center notifies as the mail summary information for each mail the payer of the fee for the communication between the electronic mail center and the receiver. The fee payer information is displayed on the terminal of the receiver. When the receiver receives from the electronic mail center the electronic mail addressed to him, the electronic mail center generates a bill according to the fee required for the delivery of the electronic mail separately for senders and receivers. In this case, the communications fee for the transmission between the electronic mail center and the receiver is charged to the payer designated by the sender when the electronic mail is sent.
