Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de génération de message, un procédé de transfert de message et un dispositif. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes dans lesquelles : un classificateur reçoit un message; le classificateur ajoute un identificateur prédéfini dans le message, l'identificateur prédéfini étant utilisé pour indiquer si le message est un message à plusieurs destinataires. La présente invention résout le problème selon lequel un traitement de service différencié ne peut pas être réalisé sur des messages à plusieurs destinataires ayant différentes adresses de destination, parvenant ainsi à réaliser un traitement de service différencié sur des messages à plusieurs destinataires ayant différentes adresses de destination.
