Abstract

See full text

An email client is configured to watch for attachment events and to automatically package a web page as a single-file attachment to an email note. When an attachment event is recognized by the email client, a determination is made as to whether the attached file is an HTML document. If the attached document is an HTML document, then a determination is made as to whether the HTML document has supporting resource files. If the HTML file has supporting resource files, then the registry is checked to see if the user has specified to include all supporting resource files with any HTML attachment. If not, then the user is prompted by a dialog box to select whether the supporting resource files should be attached. If the user expresses a desire to have the supporting resource files attached then the web page and all supporting resource files are packaged into a single file in Web Archive (e.g., MHTML) format. This single file is attached to the email note and transmitted with the email note to the recipient. The recipient will be able to unpack the attachment so that the web page can be displayed in its original form.
