A folding detecting unit detects whether or not the corresponding mobile radio
terminal is in the folded state. A storage unit stores phone numbers of mobile
terminals and automatic response data in the form of a table. A communication control
unit refers to information stored in the storage unit when an incoming call occurs
and, when the folding detecting unit detects that the terminal is changed from
the folded or closed state to the unfolded or opened state, responds to the incoming
call to initiate communication according to the automatic response data for the
originating terminal.
