Abstract

A method and system are disclosed for the efficient distribution of messages utilizing a data processing system.
A distribution channel is selected in response to a user selection of a particular distribution media. If transmission via the selected distribution channel fails, an alternate distribution media is automatically selected and the message converted to that alternate distribution media.
Transmission is then attempted utilizing the alternate distribution media via a different distribution channel In one depicted embodiment of the present invention the process of automatically selecting a different distribution media and attempting transmission via a different distribution channel continues until such time as a transmission is successful or a specified maximum number of attempted transmissions has occurred.
