Message Handling

Out-of-office greeting - If you will be out of the office for a period of time, it is often customary to change your greeting to let callers know. Many people spend a fair amount of time getting their standard greeting to sound just the way they want it. So instead of recording over your standard greeting, you can record an out-of- office greeting. If the out-of-office greeting is enabled, callers will hear it instead of your standard greeting. When you return to the office, logon to your mailbox and disable your out-of-office greeting. The system will go back to playing your standard greeting. If you will be out of the office for an extended period of time and will not be checking your messages, you may ask your system administrator to configure your mailbox so that callers will not be able to leave a message after listening to your out-of-office greeting.

Call screening and call blocking - with call screening, you can find out who is calling, and then accept the call or send it to you mailbox, allowing the caller to leave a message. With call blocking, all calls are automatically sent to your mailbox. Both call screening and call blocking only work for calls routed by Messaging Voice Mail to your extension (e.g. through the auto- attendant).

Extension Specific Processing (ESP) - if you have special call-handling needs, this feature lets you provide options to your callers in addition to leaving a message or pressing 0 for the operator. Before this feature can be used, the system administrator must set up ESP for you.

Some features may be restricted or not available. Check with the system administrator for availability and for more information on any of these PhoneManager features.
