Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media for routing a message service message through a communications network are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes, at a signaling node upstream from a sending party message server, receiving a message service message that includes a sending party identifier and a receiving party identifier. A number translation database is queried to determine a routing identifier associated with the receiving party identifier. The method also includes modifying the message service message to include the routing identifier, and routing the message service message to the sending party message server.
