greeting-only, and phantom mailboxes. See “Setting Up Your

 

Password and Voice Mail for the First Time” in Chapter 1 for details.

 

(Your administrator creates group mailboxes and their passwords.)

 

For changes to passwords and greetings, see “Changing Your

 

Password” and “Changing Your Name Announcement and Personal

 

Greetings” later in this chapter.

 

The default setting for the maximum length of each voice mail

 

message on the system is 5 minutes. Your administrator can configure

 

your organization’s NBX Messaging system to receive and store voice

 

mail messages that are up to 10 minutes long.

 

Use the Off-Site Notification feature if you want the NBX system to

 

notify you when callers leave voice mail messages in your voice

 

mailbox. See “Off-Site Notification” in Chapter 5.

 

With a touch-tone telephone, you are able to bypass system messages

 

using option buttons if you are configuring passwords and greetings.

 

However, you cannot bypass voice mail messages in this manner.

NetSet™ utility and to access your NBX voice mail. You can change this

 

password with your telephone (using the NBX voice prompts or a feature

 

code) or through the NBX NetSet utility.

 

To set up your password for the first time, see Table 4 and “NBX NetSet

 

Utility” in Chapter 1. Table 4 also describes how to change your

 

password.

 

If you forget your password, the administrator can set it to be your

 

extension number. Then follow the instructions in Table 4 in Chapter 1 to

 

change it to a more secure password. Also see “Security Tips” next.

If your NBX system uses a messaging system other than NBX Messaging:

Use the feature code method described in Table 4 in Chapter 1 to set and change the NBX NetSet utility password.

3Com recommends that you use the same password for your voice messaging system and for the NBX NetSet utility.
