ABSTRACT:
A system and method for confirming the receipt of a message by a messaging unit or pager. The system allows a caller to request page confirmation from the service provider. The system uses a caller identifier, entered by the caller at an input source, and a sequential index to store and locate data relating to the page confirmation request in a data structure. A page confirmation message is sent to the pager and the pager immediately sends a confirmation reply message back to service provider. At this point the service provider indicates in the data structure that the page was successful. At any time, the caller can then access the service provider to determine if his message was received by the pager.
