Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005062635A2] A predefined arrangement of one or more predefined characters in one or more predefined positions in the body of a text message is recognised by a text message router (3). In response to that recognition, a function required by the sender of the text message is selected. The required function may be to tag a recorded message with one or more text identifiers extracted from a text message sent by the caller or the recipient, the recorded message being a voice message or a video message. The required function may invoke a further communication initiated by the apparatus, utilising text and/or voice communication. The further communication may be sent back to the subscriber who sent the original message. A language translation means may send a language translation of at least part of the original message. The further communication may be sent according to addressing information in the original message. The further communication may be sent via an email interface (6) to an email address associated with the sender. A voice call may be established between the call originator and a voice mailbox associated with addressing information in the original message.
