1. A system comprising:
- a mobile device application that operates on a mobile device of a user, that is configured to obtain a message sent or received by the mobile device over a mobile device communication protocol, and that is configured to forward the obtained message over a network connection that does not use the mobile device communication protocol, the network connection being different than a traditional wireless signaling or delivery channel over which the message was sent or received; and
a server system that is remote for the mobile device, that is configured to receive, from the mobile device application over the network connection, the obtained message, that is configured to log, in electronic storage, the obtained message, and that is configured to make the logged message available to the user over the network connection using the mobile device or another device.

19. A mobile device application that operates on a mobile device of a user based on instructions stored, in a computer-readable storage medium of the mobile device, the mobile device application being configured to perform operations comprising:
-
obtaining a message sent or received by the mobile device over a mobile device communication protocol; and forwarding the obtained message over a network connection that does not use the mobile device communication protocol, the network connection being different than a traditional wireless signaling or delivery channel over which the message was sent or received and the forwarded message being received by a server system that is remote for the mobile device, that is configured to receive, from the mobile device application over the network connection, the obtained message, that is configured to log, in electronic storage, the obtained message, and that is configured to make the logged message available to the user over the network connection using the mobile device or another device.

20. A server system, comprising:
-
at least one processor; and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor having stored thereon instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising; receiving, over a network connection from a mobile device application that operates on a mobile device of a user, a message obtained by the mobile device application, the obtained message having been sent or received by the mobile device over a mobile device communication protocol and having been forwarded by the mobile device application over a network connection that does not use the mobile device communication protocol, the network connection being different than a traditional wireless signaling or delivery channel over which the message was sent or received; logging, in electronic storage, the received message, and making the logged message available to the user over the network connection using the mobile device or another device.
