Yes, as both companies instructed me I have turned phone off and back
on, I definately have space in my inbox. I was able to receive a test
message from Optus. Of course Telstra wouldn't even go as far as to
try sending me a test message. The other strange thing is that I
received a picture message from my Dad, but cannot receive text
messages.
So how do I contact this A Party?

Try manually selecting another carrier (not Optus) as your
network in your phone's network configuration options. Having
done this, change it back to Optus.
This will force a more fundamental reregistration with the Optus
network, and hopefully include an effective notification to the
Telstra message centre that you're back in business.

And of course, Telstra will blame everyone but themselves.

I went around in circles for three months between Telstra and Voda over
this very sort of problem. Telstra ended up being a fault, surprise
surprise. Took me hours and contacting the Voda FMT leader and a Telstra
level 3 tech to get it working though.

just to let you all know I ended up getting all my missing messages a
couple of days later when someone suggested to me to put my sim in
another phone. I was skeptical but was at my wits end in frustration
so was willing to try anything. Straight away all my messages came
flooding in. I went back to using my phone straight away and haven't
had any more problems. I still don't know how and why the whole drama
happened but hopefully writing this here will help others in the
future.

Well, if you are the B-party, you wouldnt know that the a-party had sent you
a message, unless they spoke to you.
and given that you are complaining here, obviously you have spoken to them
