Abstract: A method for reconstructing a portable document file (PDF) for delivery via text messaging includes receiving, via a structured message user interface (UI) on a first device, user input identifying a portable document file, identifying a plurality of break points within the portable document file, generating a plurality of images for the portable document file using the plurality of break points each corresponding to one or more of a plurality of pages, generating a message parcel using the plurality of images and an archival link to a location storing the portable document file, and providing the message parcel as a text messaging service message to an endpoint device for presentation in a structured message UI on the endpoint device.
Abstract: Techniques for generating pre-defined outbound messages in response to a first inbound message or a first outbound message in a configured interval of time, including prioritization over configured autoreply messages. Source or destination messages conforming to business rules are sent to accompany outbound messages in particular orders and under particular circumstances.

Abstract: An example method of traffic control in a communication network includes the operations of: receiving, by a processing device, a message associated with a communication address of a party originating the message; determining a class of service associated with the communication address; identifying a network resource locator contained in the message; responsive to detecting, in a chain of redirects associated with the network resource locator, an identifier of a related entity represented by one of: a trusted entity or a known bad actor, adjusting the class of service based on the related entity; selecting one or more links having their respective reliabilities corresponding to the adjusted class of service; and forwarding the message via the one or more links.

Abstract: A method for operating a portable document file (PDF) communication system involves receiving a composition control through a structured message user interface (UI) on a first device. The method uploads a PDF to a document transformation engine. A PDF analyzer identifies at least one break point within the PDF. A PDF splitter is configured with the at least one break point to generate at least one image from the PDF and transmit the PDF and the at least one image to an archiver. The archiver is operated to store the at least one image and the PDF and generate an archival link. A multimedia message service (MMS) composer is operated to generate a message parcel from the at least one image and the archival link. The structured message user interface is operated to communicate the message parcel as an MMS message to an endpoint.
Abstract: A communication system including a registry, a traffic service-level classifier, and a network traffic controller receives messages from a communication address, and performs a proactive address verification process to determine a class of service for the network traffic controller to utilize for the communication address, thereby unlocking additional functionality for the communication address on the network.
