Method and system for the mass sending of messages
View Patent ↗The present publication discloses a method and system for sending messages in a telecommunications network ( 1, 2, 6, 11, 12 ), in which method digital messages ( 40 ) which contain information on the desired reply address ( 32 ) are mass sent ( 3 ), and messages, which are sent on the basis of the reply-address information ( 32 ) are received ( 10 ). According to the invention, the reply-address information of each mass-sent message ( 40 ) is converted ( 3 ) to correspond to a predefined dialogue, in which the stage of the dialogue defines unequivocally the reply-address information ( 32 ), so that the transmission and reception of the messages are implemented in different parts of the telecommunications system ( 1, 2, 6, 11, 12 ).
