Abstract
The present invention relates to a message service method and a message service system. The message service method receives a message and a message transmission request from an open service application user and transmits the message to an appropriate transmission infrastructure such that the message arrives at a destination terminal. To achieve this, the message service system includes an open service application server which sends the message and the message transmission request, an open service gateway which reconstructs the message as one of a short message, a WAP Push message and a multimedia message through message analysis, and transmission infrastructures which transmits messages.

A message service method comprising:
- receiving a message and a message transmission request including a multimedia messaging service capability feature (MM SCF) policy represented by a configurable value set by an open service application server for the operation of an MM SCF;
- extracting message elements including the contents and information of the message;
- and
- selecting one of a plurality of transmission infrastructures which transmit messages according to the message elements and the MM SCF policy and requesting the selected transmission infrastructure to transmit the message,
- wherein the open service application server sets up and releases the policy such that the MM SCF operates in a manner that the open service application server desires,
- wherein the policy includes a parameter used to identify a specific service application, and the configurable value.
