Systems and methods relating to archiving a message in a message store and synchronizing the message store across multiple client devices of the same user are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a client device for archiving messages in a message store managed by a server comprises making a determination at the client device to archive a message that is stored in a first mailbox of the message store and, upon making the determination, sending an instruction to the server to set an Archived flag for the message. In this manner, the message is archived without copying or moving the message to a secondary mailbox, which in turn simplifies both the archiving process and subsequent synchronization across other client devices of the same user.

Archiving messages without message copying

Systems and methods are disclosed herein that enable a client device to efficiently identify mailboxes containing objects of interest in a server-based message store. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a client device comprises sending a single request to a server for a list of mailboxes maintained by the server for a user that contain objects flagged with any of one or more flags specified in the single request. The method of operation of the client device further comprises, in response to the single request, receiving, from the server, the list of mailboxes maintained by the server for the user that contain objects flagged with any of the one or more flags specified in the single request. The method also comprises processing the list of mailboxes. In this manner, the client device is enabled to quickly and efficiently identify which mailboxes of the user contain objects of interest.

Managing specialized objects in a message store

Embodiments of the invention relates to methods, and apparatuses for exchanging the preferred MSRP chunk sizes between an end-point and a remote end-point, directly or via a server using SDP offer/answer mechanism. The preferred MSRP chunk size may be the maximum allowed MSRP chunk size for the end-point and may be determined in accordance with network/link conditions and/or internal configuration. The end-point uses its preferred MSRP chunk size and the received preferred MSRP chunk size of the remote end-point to determine the MSRP chunk size that will be used to segment the messages from the end-point to the remote-end-point over the MSRP session. The preferred MSRP chunk size can be renegotiated during an ongoing MSRP session.

Negotiation of message chunk size for message session relay protocol session

A method and an IP-SM-GW for providing an interworking service between CPM and SMS are provided. The method comprises the steps of receiving a chat session invitation, in a IP-SM-GW, the chat session invitation originating from a CPM UE and being sent toward an SMS enabled UE. Assigning an identifier with the chat session in the IP-SM-GW and sending an invitation acknowledgement from the IP-SM-GW to the CPM UE. Receiving a message containing data, within the chat session, in the IP-SM-GW, from the CPM UE and being sent to the SMS enabled UE, formatting the message into an SMS message, wherein the identifier assigned to the chat session is inserted as a sender of the SMS message to ensure that an SMS response is sent back to the IP-SM-GW and forwarding the formatted SMS message to the SMS enabled UE.

Method and internet protocol short message gateway (IP-SM-GW) for providing an interworking service between converged IP messaging (CPM) and short message service (SMS)

Control is exercised over a tap connection made for law enforcement agency monitoring of mobile station communications in response to an inter-exchange hand-off. Where such a tap connection does not yet exist at hand-off, pre-hand-off actions taken at the target exchange trigger an analysis of whether a party to that communication is marked for monitoring followed by an establishment of the tap connection at hand-off if the party is so marked. If the tap connection is already in place, pre-hand-off actions taken at the target exchange trigger an analysis of whether law enforcement agency monitoring of that communication is lawfully authorized with respect to the target exchange followed by instructing the anchor exchange to terminate the tap connection at hand-off if monitoring is not lawfully authorized.
