Abstract
Disclosed is a method for communicating with several users in order to improve the usability of a communication system involving several users. Said method comprises the following steps to record a communication between the several users utilizing several communication services (3-8; 23-28) in chronological sequence: a request message is transmitted from a communication terminal (1; 21) of one of the users to a communication management server (10; 30); the communication management server (10; 30) assigns an identity to the communication, and the request message is answered by transmitting the identity to the communication terminal (1; 21); the respective communication terminal (1; 21) marks messages that are output via the different communication services (3-8; 23-28) of the several users'"'"' communication terminals (1; 21) with the identity, and the messages that are output via the different communication services (3-8; 23-28) and are marked with the identity are recorded so as to be retrievable via the identity. The invention further relates to an arrangement, a communication management server (10; 30), and a communication terminal (1; 21) for carrying out a communication method involving several users.
