Abstract: A communication terminal apparatus is provided, with which a user can check contents of an incoming mail in the same manner as in an incoming call. A reading-out registration data YTD including a mail address MAD and a key word KWD is previously stored. When an address of a sender of the received mail coincides with the mail address MAD in the reading-out registration data YTD and a key word KWD corresponding to mail address MAD is included in the received mail, a phone number corresponding to the mail address of the sender is searched through an address book and the searched phone number is displayed on a display unit 4 while the incoming mail is notified and further contents of the incoming mail are read out in response to an off-hook operation, whereby incoming of a mail including a predetermined attribute is notified with an incoming-call alert which is generally used to notify an incoming call.
