Abstract

See full text

A mail message, sent by a subscriber of a Mobile Station Integrated Services Digital Network (MSISDN)-restricted messaging service, may be intercepted by a network gateway. A unique ID number, which may be in the form of a standard MSISDN number, may be assigned to the restricted subscriber, and used to send the mail message as a multimedia mail service (MMS) message to a recipient subscriber of an MSISDN-based messaging service. In one embodiment, the ID number may be used as the sender's MSISDN number. In another embodiment, the recipient may reply to the message without ever seeing the sender's actual MSISDN such that privacy is protected but communication is enabled.
