One of the most important security issues of e-mail service is user privacy. Currently, various security protocols, like PGP(pretty Good Privacy), S/MIME(Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension), have been proposed. These protocols, however, do not provide forward secrecy. Recently, some security protocols that provide forward secrecy were proposed. But all of them require changes to the current e-mail infrastructure. Moreover, contrary to authors' intention, some of them do not actually provide perfect forward secrecy. In this paper, we propose a new practical e-mail security protocol. The proposed protocol provides perfect forward secrecy and uses a practical e-mail model that dose not require any changes to existing e-mail servers. It encrypts and authenticates messages efficiently using elliptic curve based signcryption scheme. In addition, we provide a way to send secure group e-mails.

Diversity of available communication media has increased as the use of Internet and mobile technology increased rapidly. The traditional media tend to transform their roles and functionality. This change brings about the expansion of the span of media to be selected by users. In this study, we examined the characteristics of emerging communication media use based on Niche Theory. Online communication media in this study include Internet messenger, mobile phone, and e-mail. We also analyzed the relationship between the nature of task and the selection of communication media, that is, the effects of communication contexts(formal vs. informal, notification vs. request, superior vs. inferior) where by the communication partners are involved. The result of this study, mobile phone had the highest niche competitive superiority in all communication contexts, and internet messenger and e-mail made difference according to communication contexts. Also, we can notify internet messenger and e-mail have a mutual substitutive relationship by analysis of niche overlap.

E-mail system is considered as a most important communication media, which can be used to transmit personal information by internet. But e-mail attack also has been increased by spoofing e-mail sender address. Therefore, this work proposes sender verification faculty for spam mail protection at sender's MTA by using security card for protection forged sender and also for authenticating legal sender. Sender's mail MT A requests security card's code number to sender. Then sender input code number and generate session key after sender verification. Session key is used to encrypt sender's signature and secure message transmission. This work can provide efficient and secure e-mail sender authentication with sender verification and message encryption.

This paper explains design and implementation of Multimedia E-mail system as a research on multimedia service. It is based on MIME(Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) which extends RFC822. MIME is a standard mail tran sfer protocol which can include multiple objects in a single message, represent non-textual material such as images and audio, exchange without loss of multimedia information through SMTP(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). It is implementation of Multimedia Mail system which can store, delete, edit and tran sfer multimedia mail misgave in user friendly way on UNIX system. It aims tp develope framework for multimedia E-mail system.

Most cyber breaches are caused by APT attacks using malware. Hackers use the email system as a medium to penetrate the target. It uses e-mail as a method to access internally, destroys databases using long-term collected vulnerabilities, and illegally acquires personal information through system operation and ransomware. As such, the e-mail system is the most friendly and convenient, but at the same time operates in a blind spot of security. As a result, personal information leakage accidents can cause great damage to the company and society as a whole. This study intends to suggest an effective methodology to securely manage the APT attack by strengthening the security configuration of the e-mail system operating in the enterprise.

Electronic mail (E-mail) is an integral part of communication for the recent Internet users. However, e-mail has also come to serve as a means to support flood of unwanted spam mails and junk mails having bad purposes. This paper was conducted in order to develop an intelligent e-mail system using user behavior pattern that can prevent these unnecessary information and enable the user to enjoy communication via e-mail in a cleaner environment. The concentrated analysis of the user behavior in terms of using e-mail functions has resulted in better classification between unnecessary and necessary information, thereby facilitating faster disposal of spam mails.

Lately, electronic commerce through the Internet has been rising in attention. An important element in such commerce is EDI. EDI is mainly used with VAN but its use is not common due to the high cost of EDI transfer. Thus, only large corporations with frequent use of EDI are able U benefit from it, To smaller companies that have small usage, EDI is becoming a burden. Considering this fact as well as current changes within the enterprise environment, it is apparent that a new generation of EDI is required. To resolve the problems of VAN EDI, the proposed Internal EDI was implemented. Internet EDI deals with the use of the widely spread Internet instead of VAN. By using Internet EDI, it is possible to reduce the high cost that came when using VAN. There would be no extra transfer cost since transmission will be done through the Internet. Also, electronic commerce that is mostly used today between an individual and a company may grow to become a true electronic commerce between companies.

This study was conducted to investigate the awareness and utilization of the Internet resources and services for academic activities by the academic staff of tertiary institutions in Adamawa State. The researchers adopted a quantitative research method using cross-sectional survey design to collect data from the respondents. Multi-stage sampling techniques were used. Three hundred and thirty-three (333) copies of the questionnaire were administered to the respondents in the eight (8) sampled institutions and two hundred and ninety-two (292) respondents representing (87.6%) were returned and found useful. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics by the use of SPSS version 20.0. The findings revealed that respondents were aware of all the Internet resources, (e-books, e-journals, and online databases), but regarding the Internet services, they were mostly aware of only the e-mail. The study further found that online database and e-mail as the most Internet resources and services utilized by the respondents. There are inverse and weak relationship between awareness and utilization of the Internet resources and services by the academic staff of tertiary institutions in Adamawa State. The study recommends increase awareness and use to other Internet resources such as the e-books and e-journal and Internet services, especially Usenet, Discussion group and Telnet by the management of the institutions through training, workshops/conferences for better academic activities.

Now is the time for web-based video e-mail system because of world wide use of internet. But video data is so large, then data compression is much needed for transmission by web. In this paper, my colleagues and I implement full motion video e-mail system using MPEG-4, the international standards for audio-visual data. This video e-mail system is made of web-based active-X control, so easily accessible by web, and applies real-time audio-video compression. It's possible for everyone to send video e-mail for free to everywhere in the world if this system is used. The main application areas of this system are multimedia mailing service, web-based video advertisement, remote education, remote medical service and shopping mall construction, etc.
