Abstract
In response to a request from a user, multiple reply mails are accessed and a changed portion for each of the reply mails is determined. Here, when the reply mail has a quotation from a past mail in the body and when the quotation includes newly-added information, a part where the information is added is determined as the changed portion. Otherwise, an original reply part in the body of the current mail is determined as the changed portion. Then, schedule information on a schedule is extracted from the changed portion. Based on the schedule information, summary information including a schedule of each person is created.
