Chapter 1: Overview

Making a Call from the Voice Mail System - allows users to make a call from within the Voice Mail System by pressing # at the Main Menu and entering the internal extension or external phone number. This is especially useful while traveling where users can respond to all messages and make other calls not associated with a message, all with one call into the Voice Mail System. This can result in significant savings. The use of this privilege is configurable on a per-user basis.

Message Management - receives, sends, forwards, deletes, and replies to messages.

Message Notification - designed to alert you of new voice messages in your mail box by calling an extension, phone or pager number. A notification schedule can be set for business hours, after business hours, at any time or at a specified time. You have an option of being notified of all messages or only urgent messages.

Personal/Activity Greeting - allows users to record personal and/or activity greetings in their own voice to be played when callers reach their voice mail.

Press “0” Option for Extension in Voice Mail - allows a caller to press “0” while listening to an extension’s greeting. The “0” can be configured by the administrator to forward the user to operator or other destinations.

Priority Delivery - allows caller to set the priority of message delivery such as normal or urgent.

Private Messaging - allows users to leave a private message in their voice mail for the expected caller.

Reminder Calls - are used to remind you of important meetings, things to do or people to call.

Remote Access - allows users to access the Voice Mail System from outside by dialing into the AA and pressing # to log in; or pressing ### from any internal extension to access any voice mail box.

Return to AA - after leaving a voicemail message and pressing # to send it, incoming trunk callers are prompted with the option to return to AA to try another path or person.

Set Call Forwarding from Voice Mail - users can set up Call Forwarding from within the Voice Mail System. This allows users to set up Call Forwarding while away from the office.

Voice Mail Distribution List - allows the user to use system distribution lists or personal distribution lists for forwarding voice mail. Up to 100 distribution lists can be created. Each distribution list can have up to 64 entries, and any entry can be another distribution list.

Zoomerang - allows users to listen to messages in the Voice Mail System, make a return call to a party who left a message, and then return to the Voice Mail System to continue checking the next messages, all in a single call into the Voice Mail System. If the caller ID information is not captured, the user may enter the “call back” number manually.
