`
`1. A method of routing a communication in a communication

`associated with a first participant and a second participant device
`associated with a second participant, the method comprising:
`
`causing at least one processor to access at least one memory

`separate and distinctive from said callee identifier, said location
`identifier identifying a location of the mobile telephone;
`
`receive an access code reply message from the access server in
`response to said access code request message, said access code
`reply message including an access code different from said

`communication comprises causing the at least one processor to:
`
`determine whether a profile associated with the new second
`participant identifier exists in a database, and when a profile
`associated with the new second participant identifier does not
`exist in the database, classify the communication as an external

`causing the at least one processor to classify the communication
`as a system communication.
