Abstract:
1. A communication terminal comprising: a message communicator configured to communicate a message; a hands-free voice signal producer configured to produce a voice signal according to a received message received by said message communicator, said voice signal being output for hands-free speech through an external loudspeaker provided in said communication terminal or in a device used through a wired or wireless connection to said communication terminal, wherein the external loudspeaker is configured to output sound audible to those who are in vicinity of the external loudspeaker; an analysis information list storage circuit configured to store one or more analysis information for use in analyzing said received message in order to judge whether or not said received message is to be audible to said those who are in vicinity of the external loudspeaker; a message analysis circuit configured to perform a message analysis process for said received message according to said analysis information stored in said analysis information list storage circuit; a message storage circuit configured to store the message analyzed by the message analysis circuit; a message display circuit configured to display the message held in the message storage circuit; and a hands-free function control circuit configured to control said hands-free voice signal producer to not produce a voice signal in response to a determination that said received message complies with a condition designated in the one or more analysis information stored in the analysis information list storage circuit, wherein: when said message is an electronic mail, analysis range information about a range subjected to said message analysis by said message analysis circuit is further given to said analysis information by designating one or more elements of an electronic mail body and an electronic mail header, and said message analysis circuit is further configured to perform said message analysis aiming at a range according to said analysis range information.
