1. A method, comprising:
- associating a sender system and a receiver system with an integrated delivery system that enables an exchange of selected data;
receiving an electronic message from a sender'"'"'s address, the electronic message destined for a recipient'"'"'s address, the electronic message having an attached object that is associated with a sender legacy system;
associating the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address to a list of addresses;
when both the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address are matched to the list of addresses, then sending the electronic message to a rule-based engine that interprets the attached object using a set of rules;
categorizing the attached object as at least one of (1) data associated with an access agent, (2) data associated with a security agent, (3) data associated a messaging agent, (4) data associated with a transactional agent, and (5) data associated with a troubleshooting agent;
based on the category, converting the object from a first legacy data format associated with the sender legacy system to a second legacy data format compatible with a receiver legacy system before receipt thereof by the receiver legacy system;
when the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address do not match the list of addresses, then receiving an identifier that associates the electronic message with another legacy system;
processing the converted object according to the category selected by the rule-based engine; and
splitting a display screen into two viewing areas, with the electronic message presented in a first viewing area and the converted objected presented in a second viewing area.

Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling a telecommunications network-based information system (NBIS). A data connection is established with a rule-based application dataserver of a telecommunications network facility to control access, sharing, notification, security, and/or management of electronic data exchanged between or among different legacy systems of NBIS participants. Typically, the rule-based application dataserver is associated with a central office (“CO”), a mobile telephone switching center (“MTSO”), or a combination CO/MTSO.

15. A memory device storing processor executable instructions for performing a method, the method comprising:
-
associating a sender system and a receiver system with an integrated delivery system that enables an exchange of selected data; receiving an electronic message from a sender'"'"'s address, the electronic message destined for a recipient'"'"'s address, the electronic message having an attached object that is associated with a sender legacy system; associating the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address to a list of addresses; when both the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address are matched to the list of addresses, then sending the electronic message to a rule-based engine that interprets the attached object using a set of rules; categorizing the attached object as at least one of (1) data associated with an access agent, (2) data associated with a security agent, (3) data associated a messaging agent, (4) data associated with a transactional agent, and (5) data associated with a troublesbooting agent; based on the category, converting the object from a first legacy data format associated with the sender legacy system to a second legacy data format compatible with a receiver legacy system before receipt thereof by the receiver legacy system; when the sender'"'"'s address and the recipient'"'"'s address do not match the list of addresses, then receiving an identifier that associates the electronic message with another legacy system; processing the converted object according to the category selected by the rule-based engine; and splitting a display screen into two viewing areas, with the electronic message presented in a first viewing area and the converted objected presented in a second viewing area. - View Dependent Claims (16)
