USING YOUR ADVANCED MAILBOX
After you set up your mailbox (see page 26), you can use personal or system greetings
to let callers know if you are out of town, on a call, etc. You can send messages to
individuals and to a group of people if your voice mail administrator has programmed
a name for the group. In addition, various options allow you to customize your mail-
box, manage your messages, and screen your calls. To allow the system to retrieve e-
mail and fax messages from your e-mail account, you must first set up your e-mail
password (see page 123).
When you access your mailbox (see page 29), the system announces how many new
and saved voice mail, fax, and e-mail messages you have in your mailbox. You can
choose which type of message you want to access by selecting voice mail, fax, or e-
mail from the main subscriber menu.
Main menu options include the following:
• To access voice mail messages: Say “Voice Mail” or press
.
• To record voice mail messages: Say “Record” or press .
• To access e-mail messages: Say “E-Mail or press .
• To access personal mailbox options: Say “Personal” or press .
• To access message options: Say “Options” or press
.
• To access facsimile messages: Say “Facsimile” or press .
• To disable ASR (for that call only): Say “Disable” or press .
At any menu level, you can say “Cancel” or press to cancel or return to the pre-
vious menu or say “Accept” or press to accept. For a voice mail flowchart for
advanced mailbox users, see page 131.
NOTE: All of the menu options and instructions for using the advanced mailbox are
presented as voice commands and numeric entries. If you have a six-line display end-
point, you can also access menus and options by pressing the associated menu button
on the display. Longer menu options are abbreviated to fit the display.
