identifying a message that is applicable at a target time and that is designated to be received by a subscriber rendering device; receiving from the subscriber rendering device a notification indicating that the subscriber rendering device is entering a stand-by mode of operation, where the notification indicates an expected wake-up time when the subscriber rendering device is expected to leave the stand-by mode of operation; determining that there is no time between a current time and the target time during which the subscriber rendering device is able to receive the message thereby determining that the message cannot be received by the subscriber rendering device prior to the target time; and performing an action responsive to determining that the message cannot be received by the subscriber rendering device prior to the target time.
