Definitions

  • the invention relates to phone sourced messages. More specifically, the invention relates to storage and manipulation of received voice mail and facsimile messages.
  • Prior art voice mail and facsimile messages have been largely phone centric message types.
  • voice mail after a certain number of rings, the caller will receive an audio prompt prompting them to leave a message. The caller then speaks into the phone the message they want to leave.
  • the voice mail system saves a digital representation of the voice message which can be played back at a later time.
  • a user checks their voice mail by dialing a predetermined number. The voice mail system will typically prompt the user for a passcode before advising the user of the number and currency of existing messages. This may take the form of a computer-generated voice saying, e.g., "you have one new message and three saved messages.” The computer-generated voice then prompts the user to press a particular button to hear new messages or saved messages.
  • a new message Upon review of a new message, it may be deleted or saved. Similarly, a saved message can be deleted or resaved after reviewing it.
  • saved messages are retained only for a limited amount of time before the system deletes them automatically.
  • Most voice mail systems sort the voice mails chronologically based on time and date of receipt. Thus, as the number of voice mails increases traversing linearly through the voice mails to find a particular saved voice mail becomes increasingly time consuming. With the increase in time also come increases in cost in the event that the voice mail check is being made long-distance.
  • Facsimile messages are similarly transmitted over the telephone lines either to a standard fax machine or to a computer equipped with special fax software and a fax modem.
  • the facsimile is transmitted in a Tag Image File Format (TIFF).
  • TIFF Tag Image File Format
  • the facsimile and voice mail are discrete systems with little or no association between them from a user's standpoint. This requires the user to learn two systems, including access codes, if necessary, and associated software in order to maximally utilize the system.
  • a method and system to manage phone sourced messages is disclosed.
  • a server node receives a phone sourced message and stores the body of the message in a file server.
  • a user modifiable field (UMF) is associated with the message.
  • Other information about the message may also be associated with the message. Such information may include message status, importance, time and date received, size, and sender.
  • the sender may, for example, be determined using caller ID or because the sender attached a return phone number.
  • the association and field are stored in a database.
  • the user may access the message over a network through, e.g. a general purpose computer.
  • the phone sourced messages may be managed through the computer's graphical user interface in a manner similar to conventional e-mail management.
  • a listing of messages may then be presented to a user, including the UMF and other associated information about the message.
  • the UMF may, for example, may be used to store information about the message source or content. This allows a user to sort and/or search by content of the UMF. Additionally, phone sourced message foldering may be supported.

  • the second is referred to as a toll-free access number and is a toll-free telephone number by which server node 10 may be reached. Since each telephone number is unique to one particular user, the telephone number dialed identifies the user whom the caller is attempting to reach.

It is possible to modify the subject field as previously discussed. Once modified, the list can be sorted on the subject field, or a search can be conducted for a particular subject field's content. The user merely clicks on the "subject" column heading.
  • the blank field defaults to the top of the list. This is desirable because new messages will have a blank UMF when they first arrive. Thus, they will appear at the top of the listing of messages. Because typical users will want to review previously unheard (or unread) messages first, this arrangement improves usability and user convenience. However, other sorting arrangements are within the scope and contemplation of the invention.
  • the user may select from a number of folders in which to move messages after review.
  • the choose folder menu is provided to allow a user to select a folder. Once a folder is selected, the user may select individual voice mails by clicking on a corresponding box in the selection column. Checked messages can then be moved to the corresponding folder by clicking on the MOVE soft button. If messages are checked and the DELETE soft button is actuated, the server node will update the metadata corresponding to the checked messages to indicate the message is available in the trash folder. A message will only be listed in a message list if the metadata indicates that message to be present in the open folder. Once in the trash folder, the messages will be expunged after a predetermined time period or a user may open the trash folder and actuate the DELETE soft button to achieve immediate expungement.
  • Figure 6 shows a template for fax messages analogous to that shown in Figure 5.
  • the message listing in Figure 6 is sorted alphabetically by subject.
  • the functionality of the template in Figure 6 is substantially identical to that in Figure 5.
  • the voice mail may be downloaded as a wave file or streamed in real audio (wave was selected in Figures 4 and 5)
  • the fax may be downloaded as either a TIFF or a GIF. It is within the scope and contemplation of the ivention to provide voice in any suitable audio format (not limited to wave or streaming) and faxes in any suitable image format (not limited to GIP and TIFF).

Abstract

Méthode et système permettant de gérer les messages transmis par l'intermédiaire du téléphone. Un noeud serveur (10) reçoit un desdits messages et met en mémoire le corps du message dans un serveur de fichiers (32). Un champ pouvant être modifié par l'utilisateur est associé au message. L'association et le champ sont mis en mémoire dans une base de données (30). Dans l'un des modes de réalisation, l'utilisateur peut accéder au message par un réseau, par exemple au moyen d'un ordinateur polyvalent. Dans ce mode de réalisation, les messages transmis par l'intermédiaire du téléphone peuvent être gérés au moyen de l'interface graphique de l'ordinateur, d'une manière similaire à la gestion classique du courrier électronique.
