<p>The method and telecommunication system allow controlled delivery of Short Messages (SM) in a mobile telecommunication network (PLMN) that supports the transfer of Short Messages (SM) according to an implemented Short Message Service (SMS). According to the present invention, instructions received from a subscriber for handling Short Messages (SM) are stored in a database (I-BASE) of a network entity (P-SC, P-MSC). Subsequently for a Short Message (SM) containing sending and receiving party identification information, a lookup is performed in said database (I-BASE) using at least one of the sending or receiving party identification information of the sent or received Short Message (SM) in order to determine whether the sending or the receiving party has provided instructions for further handling of the Short Message (SM), which, if available, are executed preferably by the network entity (P-SC, P-SMC) that comprises the database (I-BASE). Hence, the present invention allows a subscriber to flexibly control the handling, flow and content of Short Messages (SM) that he sends or that are directed to his Mobile Station (MS). The subscriber can redirect, copy or distribute Short Messages (SM) or automatically reply to Short Messages (SM) in accordance with the instructions he has stored in the database (I-BASE).</p> |
