Abstract
An automatic messaging system for a telecommunications network is disclosed. A call processing entity such as a switch or central control point recognizes a call-processing event and responsively generates and sends an informational message to a specified destination. The informational message may be a text description of the event, such as an indication that “calling party just placed a call to called party” or may take other forms, such as a video message, an audio message or a fax message.
