    Abstract: An electronic mail system connected to a network includes a section for converting an image of a document surface into corresponding document image data, and a section for compressing the document image data into compression-resultant image data. The electronic mail system also includes a section for converting the compression-resultant image data into corresponding image data of a given electronic-mail format, a section for receiving information of an electronic-mail destination address, and a section for transmitting the image data of the electronic-mail format toward the electronic-mail destination address via the network. The electronic mail system may further include a section for receiving image data in an electronic mail, a section for converting the received image data into corresponding received image data of a given facsimile format, a section for expanding the received image data of the facsimile format into expansion-resultant image data, and section for printing the expansion-resultant image data.

    Abstract: A method for transmission of facsimile messages comprises the use of a plurality of transmission modalities to allow coupling of a conventional facsimile apparatus to remote equipment. A facsimile transmission is made to a point of presence facility. The facsimile transmission includes identification of the ultimate recipient for the transmission. The point of presence facility identifies the recipient, and re-transmits received facsimile image information to the recipient in a format appropriate for the recipient. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the recipient's address is identified as an e-mail address, and the point of presence facility converts the facsimile data to an e-mail-compatible format. Data initially transmitted in a non-facsimile format for ultimate reception by a facsimile apparatus may be similarly received by a point of presence facility, converted to the facsimile format, and transmitted to the recipient, as identified by address information accompanying the initial transmission to the point of presence facility. Confirmation signals may be generated by the point of presence facility to advise a sender of a successful re-transmission.
