<p>To provide message waiting notification in a wireless client/server environment, the server initiates a telephone call to the client using a telephone number assigned for message waiting notification. The server inserts a telephone number assigned for message waiting notification into a calling party number field and information pertaining to the message received into a calling party name field of the sent caller identification information. The telephone network then pages the client in response to the initiated telephone call. The server then terminates the telephone call. Upon receiving the page, a caller identification device positioned within the client receives the caller identification information sent with the initiated telephone call. The client compares the telephone number contained within the calling party member field of the caller identification information against the assigned telephone number. A match indicates that the call is a message waiting notification. The client further reads the calling party name field of the caller identification information to receive the information pertaining to the received message.</p> |
