Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0178334A2] Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present invention provide the ability for composing and transmitting a communication (such as an electronic mail message) using a content server within a communications network. The content associated with the communication is identified, typically by accessing it from storage or capturing it from peripheral devices. A location for the identified content is then determined within a layout for the body of the communication. The content is then streamed to a dynamic content server instead of being attached to the communication itself. When all of the content for the communication has been identified and streamed to the server, a minimal amount of information is transmitted to the intended recipient within the communication. This transmitted minimal amount of information includes an instruction set referencing the communication's content stored on the server.
