Abstract:
In example embodiments, a system and method for managing contact information requests in a network are provided. Accordingly, a request is received at a contact management system from a user device of a user. The request is for a value for a contact that corresponds to an individual in an address book of the user. An electronic message is sent to and an electronic response received from the individual. Based on the electronic response being a reply in a same format as the electronic message and the reply including the value, the reply is parsed to obtain the value. Based on the electronic response being an indication of activation of a link provided in the electronic message, a form is provided with a field for entering the value. The value obtained from the individual may be automatically provided t the user for updating of their address book.
Abstract:
In example embodiments, a system and method for international dialing through a relay is provided. A call is received from a device of a caller to a pool number. An identifier of the caller is identified from the call. A pool string is determined from the pool number whereby the pool string having one or more digits of the pool number. A destination string is identified to which a combination of the identifier of the caller and the pool string maps in a database whereby the destination string by itself is insufficient to obtain a destination number. The destination number is constructed using the destination substring and one or more digit keys associated with the call. The call is forwarded to the destination number.
Abstract:
In example embodiments, a system and method for international dialing through call connections is provided. An indication of an initiation of a call by a first user to a second user is received. A first pool number is provided to the first user, whereby the first pool number is different from a phone number of the second user. A message is transmitted to the second user that triggers the second user device to automatically initiate a second call to a second pool number, whereby the second pool number is different from a phone number of the first user. A first call via the first pool number and the second call via the second pool number are received. Based on a call parameter, a determination is made to connect the first call and the second call, and the first call is connected to the second call.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for determining a context of a message which has one or more domain names associated with it. The method comprises extracting the domain names from the message. The domain names correspond to a sender of the message, a recipient of the message and/or one or more users marked on the message. The domain names are then analyzed and a context of the message is determined based on the analyzing step. In an embodiment, the method further comprises inserting in the message commercial content that is relevant to the context of the message.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a system and method for displaying one or more commercial content on a bounce email. The method comprises determining a failed delivery of an email originating from a first user and destined for a second user. In response to the failed delivery, a bounce email is sent to the first user. One or more commercial content is inserted within the bounce email before sending it to the first user. In an embodiment, the commercial content relevant to the content of the email is inserted in the bounce email.
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to a method and system for delivering a message from a sender computing system to a recipient computing system and specifically to a method and system for delivering the message directly to the recipient or as close to the recipient's location as possible in order to enhance the recipients experience.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method of inserting any content, for instance commercial content and other dynamic or static content within the body of the original content and dynamically removing such commercial content based on a predefined action. For example, inserting and removing commercial content within IMAP and POP based email services within an email document, and in Web documents seen through a browser, without hampering the ability of a user to perform functions, such as print, forward etc that require the original document without the inserted commercial content.
Abstract:
In example embodiments, a system and method for ensuring that a call is made from within a call application is provided. Call details of a call initiated from a device of a user is accessed. A determination is made as to whether a notification is received from the call application on the device of the user. Based on the notification being received from the device of the user, a determination is made as to whether the notification provides an indication that the call was made from within a call application. A notice is provided to the user based on the call being made from outside the call application.
Abstract:
In example embodiments, a system and method for automated authentication are provided. A service provider system receives a message triggered by an application operating on a user device of a user. A contact identifier corresponding to the user device is determined from the message. A reply message that includes a token is transmitted to the contact identifier. A return token is received from the application that intercepted the reply message and extracted the token without user intervention. The return token is compared to the token sent in the reply message. Based on the return token matching the sent token, the contact identifier is verified as corresponding to the user device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and system for providing a predetermined service to a domain name through a first service provider. A DNS of the domain name is being managed by a DNS Manager. The DNS Manager ensures that a domain registrant of the domain name uses the first service provider for the predetermined service which identifys the DNS Manager that manages the domain name (205). The identifying step comprises providing the DNS Manager with a second DNS result unique to the DNS Manager (210), validating that DNS Servers belong to the DNS Manager (215), inserting a record in a DNS zone of the domain name or parent domain of the domain name (220), pointing a predetermined record inside the DNS zone of the domain name or parent domain to a service (225), checking a first Who is response on a second level domain name (230) and receiving an acknowledgement from the domain registrant that the DNS Manager is responsible for managing the DNS of the domain name (235).
