Abstract

A message storage system, for use with a communication network and in which a network presence is provided for an entity, stores a message from a sender to the network presence. The message storage system accepts a query including a specified property, and generates a mailbox including the stored message when one of the message properties is the specified property. The message storage system obtains proxy objects from a proxy storage. A software agent processes the stored message in accordance with a processing preference included in attributes associated with the entity.
