A system and method are disclosed, which include an arrangement of message boxes (109, 114) that can be readily accessed by users from different communication networks (103, 104, 105). The storage of messages addressed to a user can reside on nodes at various locations. The location of the messages at each instant is controlled by a service computer or "Personal Assistant" (101). As such, the storage and retrieval of such a message can be described as a type of "meeting", whereby simultaneous connectivity between the attending message sender and intended recipient is not required.
