A message system includes voice or data messages and which allows such messages to be retrieved at the convenience of the recipient. A preferred data messaging system architecture according to the present invention includes a digital signal processor at a communications entry point, an operational API, a number of calling device personality and rules sets, a storage input/output, and voice and data message storage. The digital signal processor determines the type of communications device contacting the system. The operational API interacts with the calling device to a set of operating rules. These rules specify the calling device's abilities to navigate through a messaging path and provide capability which may be required for the calling device type. The calling device personality and rules set modules preferably contain a feature set for the particular type of communication device. Each personality and rules set module preferably contains all the resources needed for navigation and operations, such as storing, retrieving, and converting to and from other types of formats. The storage input/output provides an interface between the personality and rules set module and the voice and data message storage. The voice and data message storage maintains the messages and other information.
