<p>SMS messages are delivered to non-SMS devices (110) (e.g., wireline devices in legacy communication networks (104)). Upon receiving an incoming SMS message, a message application server (114, 122) (e.g., SMSC) can detect, based on the directory number of the destination terminal, whether the destination terminal (110) is a non-SMS device. If the destination terminal (110) is a non-SMS device, the SMSC (114, 122) initiates delivery of the SMS message according to a delivery profile appropriate to the destination device. Exemplary delivery profiles include a spoken text message format, an ISUP- compatible text format or a caller ID message format.</p> |
