<p>A text message for delivery to an intended destination terminal (9) is received by equipment such as an SMS router (3) which can select one of a number of attempt/reattempt delivery modes in accordance with one or more decision factors. One delivery mode may involve a modified retry schedule for certain classes of messages, such as those sent from or to priority class-of-service customers. The decision factor(s) may be the class-of-service priority, message reception history of the intended recipient, available network node signalling capacity and/or measure of the network node signalling load.</p> |
