14. The method of claim 1 , further comprising converting the voice message to text.

15. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving an election associated with the intended recipient indicating whether to allow the recipient to access the position information, and making the position information available to the recipient only if the selection indicates the recipient is allowed access.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein making the voice message and position information available comprises embedding it into the data message.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein making the voice message and position information available comprises embedding a link to the stored voice message and position information into the data message.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising receiving an indication that the link has been selected and serving a web page to the recipient that includes the voice message and location information.

19. A message authority configured to generate a data message with a location stamp, the system comprising:

a receiver configured to receive position information associated with the mobile communication device;

a processor configured to store the voice message and position information and configured to associate a reply path identifier associated with the reply path of the mobile communication device with one of a plurality of intermediate addresses associated with the message authority; and

a transmitter configured to transmit a data message to an intended recipient, the data message allowing the recipient to access the voice message and position information,

wherein the data message includes an identifier that can be used in combination with the intermediate address to determine the reply path associated with the mobile communication device.

20. The message authority of claim 19 , further comprising a receiver configured to receive location information based on the position information, and wherein the processor is further configured to store the location information.

21. The message authority of claim 20 , wherein the location information further comprises a map that highlights the position of the mobile communication device on the map using the location information, and wherein the processor is further configured to embed the map or a link to the map in the data message.

22. The message authority of claim 19 , wherein the processor is further configured to determine a message address for the intended recipient associated with the voice message based on information included in the received message, and wherein the transmitter is further configured to transmit the data message to the recipient via the determined message address.

23. The message authority of claim 22 , wherein the destination address is an email account and the data message is an email message, and wherein determining a message address for the intended recipient comprises determining a reply path associated with an email account based on an identifier included with the received voice message.

24. The message authority of claim 19 , wherein the processor is further configured to generate a time stamp and associating the time stamp with the received voice message; and store the time stamp, and wherein the data message allows the recipient to also access the time stamp.

25. The message authority of claim 24 , wherein the time stamp is generated by the processor based on information received with the voice message.

26. The message authority of claim 19 , wherein the position information comprises latitude and longitude information associated with the position of the mobile communication device.

27. The message authority of claim 19 , wherein the processor is further configured to send a confirmation to the mobile communication device once the voice message has been received by the message authority.
