A method of enabling a customer of a mobile radio network to access an electronic mail server

摘要

Two identification codes (UID, PWD) are required for access to an electronic mail server (E-mS). To enable a customer of a mobile ratio network to access the electronic mail server without providing a code, the method provides for the following steps: establishing a telephone connection between the customer's telephone (MS1, MS2) and a switching centre (MSC1, MSC2) of the network, identifying the customer by authentication of the data which is transmitted by the connection and which comprises the customer's telephone number, establishing a connection between the switching centre (MSC1, MSC2) and a unit (SMS-C, IVR) for access to the server (E-mS), generating a string of characters, and recording the customer's telephone number and the string of characters generated as the subscriber's two identification codes (UID, PWD), and associating an electronic mailbox therewith.
