The detailed content and technology of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the drawings. [Detailed description of the invention] According to the technology disclosed in the present invention, the transfer of data between terminal nodes and the processing of receiving mail errors are implemented by extending the terminal node. It consists of three aspects: the email transmission protocol, the user interface, and the processing methods of the mail. They are described one by one. Special electronic [Rolling agreement for email between terminal nodes] This agreement uses the MIME protocol. (Multipurpose Internet

Mail Extersions), this protocol allows emails to contain general simple text and pictures, video 'sound or binary format data. The receiving end determines whether special strings (e.g. * mmDATA) are included in the mail content area (conntent). * Lin Lin) to identify whether it is a special e-mail; the format of the e-mail is to add a specific string at the beginning of the content area of the e-mail, so the content area is divided into "general content area" and "data data area" In two parts, the "general content area" is used to record the text message to be transmitted by the sender, and the "data data area" is the data to be sent by the sender and is between the general content area and the "data poor area", and Between each "data area", a separated string (for example:-

Attch_File) is used as a segment; the receiving end determines whether the mail is a special mail containing other data by judging the special string in the content area, and further judges the type of data for corresponding processing. Examples of special mail formats for users are as follows:,
