Patent number: 7466802Abstract: A system and method for receiving information regarding a telephony platform and for retrieving the object of the services provided by the telephony platform corresponding to the information received. Customer premises equipment is connected to the general switched telephone network and to a supplemental service network via a central office switch. A telephony platform is connected to the general switched telephone network for providing accessory services such as voice mail, electronic mail and facsimile services. An event identifier is generated to identify a calling event. The event identifier may be attached to a message having caller identifier information. The event identifier is used if the caller is transferred to voice mail. If a voice mail message is left, an information indicator is attached to another caller identifier message that is maintained for display on the customer premises equipment to allow the user to determine which callers left messages.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2005Date of Patent: December 16, 2008Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Gavin Sueo Lew, Thomas Steven Woods, Paul H.

Patent number: 7283807Abstract: The method operates in a telecommunications network having at least one subscriber terminal corresponding to at least one subscriber at a subscriber location. The method implements a message waiting indication service for indicating the presence of a data message corresponding to the at least one subscriber in a data message platform. The method begins in step 100 by receiving the data message at the data message platform. A message waiting signal is generated as shown in step 102. The message waiting signal is transmitted to the telecommunications network as shown in step 104 and a message waiting indication signal is generated at the telecommunications network as shown in step 106. Finally, a message waiting indication signal is transmitted to the subscriber terminal in response to the message waiting signal.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2006Date of Patent: October 16, 2007Assignee: Ameritech CorporationInventors: Robert Wesley Bossemeyer, Jr., Bruce Edward Stuckman, Crystal Roney, Neil Eugene Cox
