A method for Instant Message (IM) delivery status notification is provided, which includes the following steps. An IM message which is sent by a calling party and carries an IM identifier is received, and the IM message is transformed into a Short Message Service (SMS) message which is then sent to an SMS Service Center (SMS-SC). A corresponding relationship between the IM identifier and an SMS identifier corresponding to the SMS message is established. An SMS status report which is sent by the SMS-SC and carries the SMS identifier is received. After the IM identifier corresponding to the SMS identifier is retrieved based on the established corresponding relationship between the IM identifier and the SMS identifier, an IM delivery status noficication message carrying the IM identifier is generated and sent to the calling party. Thus, the calling party is enabled to acquire whether the IM message sent by the calling party is received by a called party. |
