A system and method for delayed delivery of a telephone message are described. A user or calling party (114) wishing to deliver a telephone message to a message recipient or called party (126) at another time specifies the destination telephone number, the delivery time, as well as the telephone message to be delivered. This information is preferably input and stored by an input processor (110). To provide for delivery of the telephone message at the time specified by the calling party (114), the current time is accessed and compared to the delivery time. If the delivery time is equal to or prior to the current time, then delivery of the telephone message is initiated. The telephone message is delivered to the message recipient (126) by placing a telephone call to the destination telephone number specified by the user (114).
