Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are disclosed for system for processing calls to a SIP or VoIP device using the called party's Email address in which a call redirect server component is provisioned with the called party's Email address and VoIP or SIP device address, and a DNS system is updated with the called party's Email address and an address of the call redirect server. VoIP calls or other SIP sessions directed to the called party's Email address are resolved by the DNS system to the address of the redirect server, which in turn redirects the calls to the called party's VoIP or SIP device. The subscriber called party may provision the call redirect server with updated Email address or VoIP or SIP device address information to allow the subscribed to change VoIP phone service providers while callers only need to remember the subscriber's Email address.
