Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing subscribers with an integrated message processing system. The message processing system allows for the receipt, transmission and management of messages. Allowable message types include voice messages, pages, facsimile messages and electronic mail messages. The message processing system displays the information to the subscriber using a web browser. The majority of the graphical user interface resides locally in order to minimize the amount of data downloaded at run-time. The message processing system may be used locally in a closed environment or over the Internet.
