    摘要: A system and method for enabling the sender of electronic mail messages to access a recipient's mailbox to reprioritize the messages previously sent by the sender. The system searches the recipient's mailbox for messages sent by the sender and unread by the recipient. An unopened message counter is used to determine the number of unopened messages in the recipient's mailbox. A message review unit enables the sender to review the unread messages. A message prioritization unit is used to reprioritize the unread messages.

    摘要: A system and method for a gatekeeper (108) to multicast commands to all gateways (106) in the system. The gateways (106) listen for one of their peer gateways (106) to accept. If one accepts, then the other gateways ignore the pending call request. The gatekeeper (108) making the request can specify an order in which the gateways (106) are to respond to its request. The order may be based on a variety of factors, such as number of calls presently being handled by a particular gateway (106) or cost of calls. Further, the gateways (106) may be provided with timers to process a call request in the requested order if a gateway (106) earlier in the queue fails to respond.

    摘要: A system and method within a multimedia messaging system for automatically enabling the system to notify a user that his or her mailbox is full and therefore no longer accepting messages for storage. The system includes one or more mailboxes to receive and store messages from callers, a capacity calculator to determine whether the messages stored in the mailbox exceed the allotted amount of storage space and a message transmittal unit to enable one or more notification alerts to be generated in response to the capacity calculator determining that the mailbox is full.

    摘要: A communication system for transmitting address changes. A communication system includes a source communication system and one or more destination communication systems, each of which is identified by a unique number or address. A memory in the source communication system maintains a record of each destination communication system that communicates with it. If the number or address of the source communication is changed, the source communication system generates a new number or address message which is transmitted to each of the destination communication systems. The destination communication systems receive the new number or address message and update a memory to reflect the new number or address of the source communication system. Those destination systems that are able to read the new number or address message and update a record of the number or address for the source communication system generate an acknowledge signal which is transmitted to the source communication system. The source communication system may transmit a human readable new number or address message to those destination communication systems that have not transmitted the acknowledge signal. The communications systems may comprise telephones, facsimile machines or computers having e-mail or IP addresses.

    摘要: A device (104) transmitting or receiving low priority data may receive or be directed to transfer higher priority data for transmission. If the incoming data is of sufficiently high priority, the device (104) will interrupt transmission of the outgoing data by generating a signal on the bus (102) indicative of a collision. The receiving device (106) will then back-off. To prevent another device (106, 108) from seizing the bus after the back-off, the device (104) immediately (i.e., before expiration of a single slot time), proceeds with the high priority transmission. Once it is finished, the device (104) may resume its earlier lower priority transmission.

    摘要: A system for integrating electronic location indicating systems (e.g., electronic door lock systems) with telecommunication systems (e.g., a PBX). This integrating of systems is done to improve the performance of a telecommunication feature, such as the camp-on feature. An electronic system is used to transmit a signal indicating information related to the user's location. A telecommunication system then receives the signal from the electronic system. This telecommunication system is capable of providing the telecommunication feature (e.g., the camp-on feature). The telecommunication system uses the signal from the electronic system as an input to the telecommunication feature.

    摘要: A method and system for client identification include a control unit configured to enable call service features in communication devices supported by the control unit. A first communication device transmits an off-hook message to the call control unit with a first memory-space physical address locally accessed from memory associated with the first communication device. The first physical address represents a location in main memory of call service profile data associated with the first communication device. The control unit responds to the first physical address by accessing a first data set from the main memory. A verification program determines whether the first data set includes the first call service profile. The control unit enables a first set of call services indicated by the first call service profile data for the first communication device if the first call service profile is included in the first data set. If the first data set does not include the first call service profile data, the control unit searches for a current address of the first call service profile, transmits the current address to the first communication device, and accesses the first call service profile from the current address before enabling the first set of call services. In a preferred embodiment, the first communication device locally stores call service profile addresses for a local communication device and a remotely located communication device. The call control unit is configured to enable call services in the local and remotely located communication devices in response to receiving the call service profile addresses for the local and remotely located communication devices in call-setup messages transmitted by the first communication device.

    摘要: A video conferencing system (10) for providing enhanced security to a conference room. A local video conferencing system (10) establishes a conference call with a remote video conferencing system. A security system within the local video conferencing system (10) monitors activity in the local video conferencing system's (10) conference room and disconnects the conference call if no activity is detected after a predetermined period of time. If activity is detected after a period of nonactivity, users of the local video conferencing system (10) are alerted that a call is in progress. The users are then given the option of continuing or disconnecting the call. In addition, the security system detects the presence of a black screen or no video signal from the remote video conferencing system and if detected, alerts the users that a call is in progress.

    摘要: An improved system and method for delivering messages is provided. A message (18) is created by a messaging system (10) and then sent to a second message mailbox (16). When the second message mailbox (16) is full, the message (18) is then sent to a first message mailbox (14) for storage. The message (18) is later automatically sent from the first message mailbox (14) to the second message mailbox (16) when the second message mailbox (16) is no longer full.
