[0064] An example of identification information contained in an email is the "message ID" contained in the email. For example, if client B requests a new project from organization I, The first email sent to this email address will contain a "message ID" unique to this project. The email that Organization I sent in response to this email to Client B also contains the same Therefore, the document creation server device 30 can Based on this "message ID", it is possible to determine which case the email is about. It is possible to identify whether

[0065] As a result, the terminal device 20A of the user A receives the web page from the document creation server device 30. By receiving the request, a new request from requester B appears on the case screen 600 as shown in FIG. Information 602 about the received email 600A can be displayed. As described above, regarding the first email (first message) 600A sent from requester B to organization I, The information 602 indicates that the first email contains the first file attached (file name: XYZ 0003.docx).

[0066] In ST308, user A performs a predetermined operation on this case screen 600. Thus, it is possible to instruct the document creation server device 30 via the terminal device 20A to associate the first file attached to the first email 600A with the group related to case X.

[0067] Specifically, for example, when user A right-clicks on the name of the first file (XYZ0003.docx) on this case screen 600, etc., the terminal device 20A can display a pop-up window 604. The pop-up window 604 can include an option 604B to "overlay" the first file as a file related to an existing related document, and an option 604A to "register as a new related document" to register the first file as a new related document. In one embodiment, option 604B is an option to register the first file as a file "having" different versions between the already registered "XYZ0001.docx" as a new related document. Option 604A is an option to register the first file as a file "not having" a relationship of having different versions between the already registered "XYZ0001.docx" as a new related document.

[0068] In the example shown in FIG. 6, when user A checks "XYZ00 01.docx" displayed in relation to option 604B and selects the "register" button, the document creation server device 30 can store the first file and the file "XYZ0 001.docx" having different versions in association with group identification information identifying a group (here, for example, "group G2"). Here, group G2 is related to case X. ​ It can be memorized as a group to be formed. As a result, the document creation server device 30 is related to Project X In the associated group G2, there are files "XYZ0001. docx" and the first file ("XYZ0003.docx") with different versions, and it can be recognized of this fact.

[0069] This will be further described with reference to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a conceptual diagram schematically showing an example of a method for storing messages and files by the document creation server device 30 in the document creation system shown in FIG. 1.

[0070] As illustrated in FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 can store a plurality of mails received or transmitted by Organization I (info@inst.co.jp) regarding Project X, in association with case identification information unique to Project X Here, for example, the document creation server device 30 can store Message 500A (and attached file: XYZ0001.docx), Message 500B, Message 500C, and Message 600A (and attached file: XYZ0003.docx) in association with case identification information unique to Project X The document creation server device 30 can store these messages and attached files in, for example, the first database. Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 can store a plurality of files received or transmitted by Organization I in Project X and having different versions, in association with group identification information for identifying a group related to Project X Here, for example, the document creation server device 30 can store, in association with group identification information for identifying Group G2, different from each other.

[0071] versions of files. Here, for example, the document creation server device 30 can store, in association with group identification information for identifying Group G2, files that are different from each other and are received or transmitted by Organization I in Project X. In this regard, for example, the document creation server device 30 can store, in association with group identification information for identifying Group G2, files that are different from each other It can store the attached file (XYZ0001.docx) and the attached file (X YZ0003.docx) with a version. The document creation server device 30 can store these attached files in, for example, a second database different from the above-mentioned first database (in another embodiment, the document creation server device 30 can also store these attached files in, for example, the above-mentioned first database).

[0072] Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 associates each attached file stored in association with the case identification information of case X with each attached file stored in association with the group identification information of group G2, and can store information regarding the association in the above-mentioned first database and / or the above-mentioned second database. Here, for example, the document creation server device 30 can associate the message 500A and its attached file (XYZ0001.docx) stored in association with the case identification information of case X with the attached file (XYZ0001.docx) stored in association with the group identification information of group G2. Similarly, the document creation server device 30 can associate the message 600A and its attached file (XYZ0003.docx) stored in association with the case identification information of case X with the attached file (XYZ0003.doc x) stored in association with the group identification information of group G2. By doing so, the document creation server device 30 can identify a plurality of mails received or sent by organization I for case X in chronological order. Also, the document creation server device x).

[0073] 30 30 can identify which e-mail the attached file was attached to. Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 can identify, for project X, a plurality of files received or sent by organization I and having mutually different versions in chronological order. It can be done.

[0074] Note that the document creation server device 30 is not limited to project X, and for one or more other projects as well, mails and files can be stored in the same manner as described above with reference to FIG. 7 in relation to project X. It can be done.

[0075] The document creation server device 30 manages (stores) mails and files as described above, and by referring to the information managed (stored) in this way, it can transmit to the terminal device 20A the web page described to display the attached files (XYZ0001.d ocx) and the attached file (XYZ0003.docx) in chronological order. Thereby, the terminal device 20A can display, as information 516 regarding the files (related documents) received or transmitted in relation to this project X, the information (for example, the name of the file, etc.) regarding the attached file (XYZ0001.docx) and the attached file (XYZ0003.docx) in chronological order. Therefore, user A (and other users belonging to organization I) can recognize that the attached file (XYZ0003.docx) was generated when the attached file (XYZ0001.docx) was modified. And the information regarding the attached file (XYZ0003.docx) In addition, user A (and other users belonging to organization I) can, regarding the information 516 shown in FIG. 8 as described above. That's it.

[0076] Also, user A (and other users belonging to organization I) can, regarding the information 516 shown in FIG. 8 By clicking on the information about the attached file (for example, the name of the file), The terminal device 20A receives the attached file from the document creation server device 30 and displays it. It is possible.

[0077] Returning to FIG. 3A, next, in ST310, the document creation server device 30 A tag can be added to the first email 600A received in the The document creation server device 30 can store in advance a plurality of phrases that can be used as tags. These multiple phrases can be selected from the phrases listed in (i) to (iv) below. There may be multiple phrases. (i) Terms or keywords used in the contract (e.g., terms of use, confidentiality, (duty, willful misconduct, electronic contracts, damages, injunctive relief, intellectual property rights, etc.) (ii) The full name or abbreviation of the law used in the contract (e.g., the Electronic Bookkeeping Act, Electronic Bookkeeping Act, Civil Procedure Act, Civil Procedure Act, Unfair Competition Prevention Act, Unfair Competition Act, etc.) (iii) Each user of Organization I has communicated with via this document creation system 1 Name of the requester or each person in charge (iv) Wording registered by any user belonging to Organization I (v) Title or type of contract (e.g., terms of use, sales contract, outsourcing contract, etc.) )

[0078] The document creation server device 30 selects the first email from among the plurality of phrases prepared in advance. One or more words present in the body of 600A are used as tags in the first email 600A. It can be automatically assigned to the first email 600A (stored in association with the first email 600A). .

[0079] In another embodiment, instead of or in addition to the configuration in which the document creation server device 30 automatically assigns one or more tags to the first email 600A, the document creation server device 30 can also assign one or more tags received from the terminal device 20A of user A via the operation of user A to the first email 600A.

[0080] Such tagging of the first email 600A by the document creation server device 30 does not necessarily have to be executed at the timing of ST310, and at any "optional" timing after the document creation server device 30 receives the first email 600A in ST306, the document creation server device 30 can assign one or more tags to the first email 600A.

[0081] Such tags can be applied in the same way not only to the first email 600A but also to emails received or sent previously (for example, emails 500A to 500C illustrated in FIG. 5, etc.).

[0082] The usage method of the tags applied in this way will be described later in connection with ST322 and ST334.

[0083] Next, in ST312, user A can operate the terminal device 20A to upload (send) the first file (a file indicating a contract) attached to the first email 600A, for example, to the document creation server device 30 as an inspection target.

[0084] In ST314, the document creation server device 30 processes the file uploaded in ST312. ​​​​​​​​​​The generated first file can be inspected / analyzed (reviewed). The document creation server device 30 As a method of inspection / analysis executed by, for example, it is possible to use a method of inspecting whether each clause included in the contract satisfies a predetermined condition.

[0085] First, in the first step, the document creation server device 30 can extract a plurality of clauses by splitting the contract into clauses units. Next, in the second step, the document creation server device 30 can inspect whether each of the plurality of clauses satisfies a plurality of predetermined conditions (rules). Whether a certain clause satisfies a certain condition (rule) can be determined by, for example, the following two methods using a plurality of words (unit words) that can be obtained by splitting the clause First, in the first example, if one or more specific words set in association with the condition exist among the plurality of words included in the clause (that is, if the plurality of unit words included in the clause satisfy a predetermined condition), the clause can be determined not to satisfy the condition. In the second example, using teacher data including a plurality of words (question data) included in the clause and a condition (answer data) that the clause does not satisfy, a learning model (a model having an input layer, a plurality of intermediate layers, and an output layer) is learned in advance, and by inputting the plurality of words included in the target clause into the learning model, the conditions that the clause does not satisfy can be obtained. First, in the first example, if one or more specific words set in association with the condition exist among the plurality of words included in the clause (that is, if the plurality of unit words included in the clause satisfy a predetermined condition), the clause can be determined not to satisfy the condition. In the second example, using teacher data including a plurality of words (question data) included in the clause and a condition (answer data) that the clause does not satisfy, a learning model (a model having an input layer, a plurality of intermediate layers, and an output layer) is learned in advance, and by inputting the plurality of words included in the target clause into the learning model, the conditions that the clause does not satisfy can be obtained. Finally, in the third step, the document creation server device 30 performs a search associating each condition, warning information corresponding to the condition, and at least one piece of presentation information corresponding to the condition and having a model), and by inputting the plurality of words included in the target clause into the learning model, the conditions that the clause does not satisfy can be obtained. Finally, in the third step, the document creation server device 30 performs a search associating each condition, warning information corresponding to the condition, and at least one piece of presentation information corresponding to the condition ​​​​​The table can be read. Using such a search table, the document creation server device 30 can obtain warning information and at least one piece of presentation information corresponding to each condition obtained in the second step above.

[0086] For example, when the condition that the target clause does not satisfy is "confidential information is not disclosed to a third party", the document creation server device 30 can search the search table and obtain warning information such as "an exception for disclosure of confidential information to a third party is defined" corresponding to that condition.

[0087] Note that at least one piece of the above-described presentation information can include, without being limited thereto, at least one of the following three types of presentation information.

[0088] (1) Type 1 The first type can be a "revision policy" type indicating a revision policy for a clause. As a specific example, the presentation information belonging to the first type and associated with the condition (rule) of "confidential information is not disclosed to a third party" is as follows. "Revise to any of the following (1) [Advantageous] Delete the corresponding part (2) [Intermediate] Limit the scope of third parties who can be disclosed"

[0089] (2) Second Type The second type can be a "revision example" type indicating a revision example for a clause. As a specific example, the presentation information belonging to the second type and associated with the condition (rule) of "confidential information is not disclosed to a third party" is as follows. "(Disclosure to a third party) ​​​​​​The Recipient shall, to the extent necessary for this purpose, disclose to its parent company, subsidiaries, and its own and related parties Confidential information may be disclosed to officers and employees of affiliated companies. The parties who are involved in the Agreement shall be bound by laws, regulations or contracts to maintain confidentiality at least as similar as the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement. This applies only when the cost is borne based on the

[0090] (3) Third Type The third type can be an "explanation" type that shows explanations about the conditions. The third task corresponds to the condition (rule) that "confidential information will not be disclosed to third parties." The presentation information belonging to the type is as follows: "In a confidentiality agreement, the recipient of confidential information basically agrees to not disclose the confidential information to a 'third party'. "Third Party" means any person other than the parties to the contract. In this case, typically, affiliates, contractors, lawyers and other advisors are "third parties." However, strictly speaking, the "officers" and "employees" of the company in question are also considered "third parties." This will be the case. When the recipient intends to disclose confidential information to such a "third party" The disclosure of confidential information to third parties is prohibited without the prior consent of the disclosing party. It is usually stipulated that confidential information can be disclosed. Therefore, as a discloser of confidential information, when obtaining confidential information would be detrimental to the party, The scope of third parties needs to be limited.”

[0091] The document creation server device 30 writes the obtained information in the comment field of the first file. The file to which the warning information and at least one piece of presentation information are added is sent to the terminal device 2 of the user A. When such a file is opened, the terminal device 20A can transmit the file to the An example of the displayed screen is shown in FIG.

[0092] Referring to the screen 900 shown in FIG. 9, in Article 3, Section 2 of the first file, The highlighted part 902 is the condition that "confidential information will not be disclosed to a third party." Since the rule is not satisfied, warning information 904, the first type is presented in the comment field. The information 906, the second type of presented information 908, and the third type of presented information 910 are displayed. .

[0093] Returning to FIG. 3A, in ST316, user A checks the document creation server device 30. The user then browses the stored first file and edits the first file using the terminal device 20A. This allows the terminal device 20A to create the second file.

[0094] Next, in ST318, the second file is the file (XYZ0001.docx) and the first file (XYZ0003.docx), which have different versions from each other. (This group has been registered as group G2 in the document creation server device 30.) User A, who is aware that the second file belongs to this group, can access the second file by performing a predetermined operation. can be associated with a group of

[0095] For example, user A operates the terminal device 20A to drag the icon of the second file. Click the "Add new documents by dragging and dropping" field shown in Figure 8. In response to this operation, the document creation server device The device 30 can store the second file in association with the group G2. As another example of a method for registering related documents, a user A may register a certain document through the document creation server device 30. A certain file (for example, the first file) stored in association with a group (for example, group G2) A file (e.g., a second file) can be created by editing or copying it. In this case, even if user A does not explicitly operate or instruct The other file (second file) is in a state where it ... It is clear that both of these belong to the above group. The document creation server device 30 automatically performs the following without any special operation or instruction from the user A: The separate file (second file) can be stored in association with group G2.

[0096] Specifically, referring again to FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 The second file (file name: XYZ0004.do) is created in association with the group identification information of G2. cx). As a result, the document creation server device 30 can store the group G2 The file (XYZ0001.docx), the first file, and the The first file (XYZ0003.docx) and the second file (XYZ0004.docx) are It can be stored column-wise.

[0097] Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 displays the following on the case screen 1000 as shown in FIG. In this regard, information regarding files (related documents) received or sent in relation to this case X51 6, the attachment (XYZ0001.docx), the first file (XYZ0003. docx) and information about the second file (XYZ0004.docx) (e.g. Therefore, User A (and Other users in organization I) have the first file (XYZ0003.docx) modified. By doing so, it is recognized that the second file (XYZ0004.docx) has been generated. It is possible.

[0098] Next, referring to FIG. 3B, in ST320, the terminal device responding to the operation of user A 20A can generate a second email (second message) with a second file attached. do.

[0099] User A performs a specific operation to create a new email (message). The terminal device 20A uses the web page received from the document creation server device 30 to create a drawing. A screen 1100 for creating an email message, such as the one shown in FIG. 11, can be displayed.

[0100] User A attaches a second file to the second email by clicking the Then, the user can click on the object 1102 called "Attach File." In response to this, the terminal device 20A displays a window 110 for selecting a file to be attached. User A can view the file 4 related to Case X as an attachment. When selecting a document, check the object 1106 "Link from related documents". On the other hand, the user A can attach a file stored in the terminal device 20A as an attachment. If you want to select a file, you can use the "Upload from local" object. 108. Here, user A can check the Thus, the former can be used.

[0101] As described above with reference to FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 stores one or more files having different versions in association with the group identification information of the group related to Project X. Using this information, the document creation server device 30 creates a web page and transmits it to the terminal device 20A. As a result, the terminal device 20A can display the information 1106A regarding the file (XYZ0001.docx), the information 1106B regarding the first file (XYZ0003.docx), and the information 1106C regarding the second file (XYZ0004.docx), which are stored in association with the group identification information of the group G2 related to Project X, in chronological order, as shown in FIG. 11. (XYZ0001.docx), the information 1106B regarding the first file (XYZ0003. docx), and the information 1106C regarding the second file (XYZ0004.docx) in chronological order.

[0102] The terminal device 20A can display the information 1106A regarding the file having the earliest version among the plurality of files stored in association with the group identification information of the group G2 separately from the information 1106B and 1106C regarding the remaining files. As an example, as illustrated in FIG. 11, the terminal device 20A can display these pieces of information by making the indent applied to the information 1106A different from the indent applied to the information 1106B and 1106C. In another example, the terminal device 20A can also display these pieces of information by making the color, font, and / or size applied to the information 1106A different from the font and / or size applied to the information 1106B and 1106C.

[0103] Incidentally, if the document creation server device 30 has a group different from the above-described group G2 related to Project X ​​​​​​​​​​​The group ID information of the other group (for example, group G0) is associated with the group ID information of the other group (for example, group G1). Consider a case where one or more files with different versions are stored. One or more files stored in association with the group identification information of group G0 are stored in group G The above-mentioned plurality of files stored in association with the group identification information of 2 are mutually In this case, the document creation server device does not have a relationship of having different versions. The terminal device 30 creates a web page using this information and transmits it to the terminal device 20A. As shown in FIG. 11, the terminal device 20A associates the ID information of the group G0 with the ID information of the group G1. A file (ZZZ0001.docx) with different versions stored in the Information about 1106D and file (ZZZ0002.docx) information 110 6E can be displayed in window 1104.

[0104] The terminal device 20A accesses the second file (XYZ0004. docx) information 1106C, a predetermined operation (clear) performed by user A In response to a request (e.g., a check), a second file was selected as an attachment to the second email. It is possible to recognize this.

[0105] Furthermore, User A can write the body of the email in field 1110. In response to user A operating the terminal device 20A to input a sentence into this field 1110, In response, the terminal device 20A transmits the text thus input to the document creation server device 30. It is possible.

[0106] In ST322, the document creation server device 30 performs the following on the document received from the terminal device 20A. If any of the plurality of words included is the same as or related to one or more tags attached to any one or more emails that have been sent or received regarding a plurality of cases including Case X by Organization I in the past, then information regarding the above one or more emails (email body, attached files, etc.) can be sent to the terminal device 20A in a web page including the same. .

[0107] In response to this, the terminal device 20A can display, in ST322, information regarding such an email (email body, attached files, etc.) as past examples in a pop-up window (not shown) superimposed on the screen 11 00 illustrated in FIG. 11. From this, User A can efficiently create the body of the second email (second message) with reference to past cases related to the second email automatically displayed on the screen 1100 without having to search for it himself / herself. . Note that as a method for the document creation server device 30 to attach tags to emails "sent" by Organization I, for example, the same method as that used to attach tags to emails "received" by Organization I as described above in relation to ST310 can be used.

[0108] When User A clicks on the object 1112 labeled "Send" displayed on the screen 1100 or the like, the terminal device 20A can send information regarding the email body and the second file as an attached file to the document creation server device 30.

[0109] In response to this, the document creation server device 30 executes the above first computer program By doing so, the second email (second message) with the second file attached can be sent to the mail server device 40 that functions as an SMTP server. In this way, the document creation server device 30 that executes the above first computer program can send an email sent to the requester B using the email address (account) uniquely assigned to Organization I to the mail server device 40. Generally speaking, the document creation server device 30 that executes the above first computer program can send and receive emails between the email address (account) uniquely assigned to Organization I and the communication target (here, for example, the requester B or the mail server device 40), and can store the emails sent and received in that way . The mail server device 40 can identify the corresponding SMTP server by referring to the email address of the requester B, which is the destination of the second email, and can send the second email to the SMTP server thus identified . After the transmission of the second email is completed in this way, the document creation server device 30 can store the second email (second message) 1200A in association with the case identification information of Case X . Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 stores the email (message) 500A and its attached file (XYZ 0001.docx), email (message) 500B, email (message) 500C

[0110] in association with the case identification information of Case X, email (message) 600A and its attached file (XYZ0003.docx), and, email (message) 1200A and its attached file (XYZ0004.do . Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 stores the email (message) 500A and its attached file (XYZ 0001.docx), email (message) 500B, email (message) 500C in association with the case identification information of Case X, email (message) 600A and its attached file (XYZ0003.docx), and, email (message) 1200A and its attached file (XYZ0004.do cx) can be memorized. As will be described later in relation to ST330, for document creation As illustrated in FIG. 7, the document creation server device 30 stores the message 1300A and its attached file (YYY0001.docx) in association with the case identification information unique to case X. It can also be memorized.

[0111] Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 associates each attached file stored in association with the case identification information of case X with each file stored in association with the group identification information of group G2, and can store information regarding the association in the first database and / or the second database. Here, for example, the document creation server device 30 can associate the mail (message) 1200A and its attached file (XYZ0004.docx) stored in association with the case identification information of case X with the file (XYZ0004.docx) stored in association with the group identification information of group G2. Returning to FIG. 3B, next, in ST324, the document creation server device 30 can also assign and store one or more tags to the second mail (second message) in the same manner as described above in ST310 in relation to the first mail (first message).

[0112] Returning to FIG. 3B, next, in ST326, the terminal device 20A can display a case screen 1200 as illustrated in FIG. 12 by using the web page received from the document creation server device 30. As shown in FIG. 12, the terminal device 20A shows that user A is the requester B

[0113] It is possible to display information 1202 regarding the second email sent to. This information 1 202 can indicate that the second email has the second file (XYZ0004.docx) as an attached file to it.

[0114] Returning to Fig. 3B, next, in ST328, the requester C can send a further email (third email / third message) to Organization I regarding the above-mentioned case X. In this case as well, the requester C can use the terminal device 20 to send an email to one email address (info@inst.co.jp) specifically assigned to Organization I. This third email (third message) is sent via the mail server device 40 and is received by the document creation server device 30 that executes the above first computer program in a similar manner as described in relation to ST 306. The document creation server device 30 can recognize that this third email is related to case X by extracting the above-mentioned identification information included in this third email . In response to this, the document creation server device 30 creates a web page and sends it to the terminal device 20A so that the terminal device 20A can display a case screen 1300 as exemplified in Fig. 13

[0115] . The case screen 1300 can include information 1302 regarding the third email (third message) 1300A received from the requester C. After this, in ST330, when user A performs a predetermined operation on this case screen 1300, the third file attached to the third email 1300A can be associated with case X

[0116] . ​Instruct the document creation server device 30 via the terminal device 20A so as to associate it with the group can be done. Specifically, as described above in relation to ST308, user A Right-click on the name of the third file (YYY0001.docx), etc., and the terminal device 20A can display a pop-up window (see FIG. 6) not shown in the figure . In such a pop-up window, user A can select the option of "Register as a new related document" (see FIG. 6). This is because the third file, for example is a file showing a contract different from the first file (XYZ0003.docx) and the second file (XYZ0004.do cx), etc., and there is no relationship with different versions among these files .

[0117] Thereby, referring to FIG. 7 used previously, the document creation server device 30 first associates with the case identification information unique to case X and can store message 500A (and attached file: XYZ 0001.docx), message 500B, message 500C, message 600A (and attached file: XYZ0003.docx), message 1200A (and attached file : XYZ0004.docx), and message 1300A (and attached file : YYY0001.docx).

[0118] Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 can store the attached file (YYY0001.d ocx) in association with group identification information that identifies a new group (group G3) different from group G2.

[0119] ​Furthermore, the document creation server device 30 stores the message 1300A and its attached file (YYY0001.docx) in association with the case identification information of case X, and can associate it with the attached file (YYY0001.docx) stored in association with the group identification information of loop G3. Using this information, the document creation server device 30 creates a web page and transmits it to the terminal device 20A. As a result, on the terminal device 20A, in the information 516 shown on the case screen 1300, it can be displayed that the third file (YYY0001.docx) belongs to a different group from the other three files (XYZ0001.docx, XYZ0003.docx, XYZ0004.docx) that have different versions from each other. (For example, as illustrated in FIG. 13, a boundary line can be displayed between the related documents belonging to group G2 and the related documents belonging to group G3.)

[0120] Thus, user A (and other users belonging to organization I) can recognize the fact that, regarding case X, a plurality (here, three) of files with different versions of a certain document (here, a contract) were created in a time series from top to bottom, and a plurality (here, currently one) of files with different versions of a completely different document (here, another contract) were created in a time series.

[0121] Returning to FIG. 3B, next, in ST332, the document creation server device 30 also performs the same process on the third email (the third message) 1300A as it did for the first email (the first message) in relation to ST ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​In the same manner as described above in 310, one or more tags are assigned and stored can be done.

[0122] Next, as an option, in ST334, user A can cause the terminal device 20A to display a board screen 400 as illustrated in FIG. 4 by operating on the terminal device 20A. User A can enter an appropriate keyword in the field 404 to search for the email that the user himself / herself wants to refer to. can enter. In response to this, in the first example, the document creation server device 30 extracts one or more emails that contain a keyword matching this keyword or a keyword related to this keyword from all the emails that have been received or sent by Organization I so far. In the second example, the document creation server device 30 extracts one or more emails that contain a tag matching the keyword entered by user A or a tag related to this keyword from all the emails that have been received or sent by Organization I so far. can be extracted. In the second example, the document creation server device 30 extracts one or more emails that contain a tag matching the keyword entered by user A or a tag related to this keyword from all the emails that have been received or sent by Organization I so far. By sending a web page containing information about the one or more emails thus extracted to the terminal device 20A, the terminal device 20A can display information about the one or more emails thus extracted (for example, sender, project name, department, time, email body, attached file, etc.). Thereby, user A can quickly and effectively view the past emails that the user desires. By sending a web page containing information about the one or more emails thus extracted to the terminal device 20A, the terminal device 20A can display information about the one or more emails thus extracted (for example, sender, project name, department, time, email body, attached file, etc.). Thereby, user A can quickly and effectively view the past emails that the user desires. can do.

[0123] Focusing on the emails (messages) received or sent by Organization I regarding Project X so far Although described with respect to Case X, with respect to another case, the document creation server device 30 and the terminal device 20 can execute the same processing as described above. As a result, the document creation server device 30 can also store, for the other case, each email (each message), a file attached to the email, or other files, etc., by the method illustrated in FIG. 7. Also, in the example described with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B, etc., although the first message (ST3 06) was assumed to be a message sent from the requester B to the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I, the first message may be a message sent from the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I to the requester B. This also applies to the third message (ST328). Further, in the example described with reference to FIGS. 3A and 3B, etc., although the second message (ST320) was assumed to be a message sent from the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I to the requester B, the second message may be a message sent from the requester B to the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I. That is, the plurality of messages including Message 500A to Message 1330A shown in FIG. 7 may be messages "sent" by the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I, or may be messages "received" by the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I. That is, the plurality of messages including Message 500A to Message 1330A shown in FIG. 7 may be messages "sent" by the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I, or may be messages "received" by the email address uniquely assigned to the organization I.
