Abstract

Methods and systems allow use of a TCP/IP or other network for a message sender's messaging platform (MP1) to engage in a query/response exchange using a standardized protocol such as LDAP with a directory or an other messaging platform to obtain spoken name data associated with a recipient of a message from the sender. If available, the directory responds to the MP1 with the spoken name data. If unavailable at the directory, the directory may retrieve the spoken name data from an other messaging platform, or may provide MP1 with profile data indicating the location of the spoken name data. If MP1 does not receive the spoken name data from the directory, then MP1 may use the profile data to obtain the spoken name data from the location indicated. Once MP1 receives the spoken name data, MP1 makes a presentation to the sender.
