MADN, Do Not Disturb, and Call Forwarding features also affect the appropriate line key icon of the account.

Making a call

You can place a call using any of the registered user accounts. The selected user account determines which proxy is used, which domain name is used for the call target if none was specified, who the target sees is calling, and what service package-dependent features are available.

The ways to initiate an outgoing call fall into two categories:

always using the primary user’s account

using a different, explicitly selected account. The usual way to select an alternate account is to press the line key of that account to obtain a dialing prompt.

If you initiate dialing by pressing digits from the Idle screen, the primary account is used after you lift the handset, press the headset key or press the handsfree key. The same applies if you initiate a call from the inbox, outbox or Instant Messages screen.

Similarly, the primary account is used when a dial prompt is first obtained after you lift the handset, press the handset key, or press the headset key, and the call is initiated by pressing digits from the Idle screen or by pressing the Send context-sensitive soft key.

If you initiate a call by pressing a line key, the user account associated with that line key is used when the call is initiated.

If you initiate a call from the Address Book or Friends list, the account that is selected to display the list, is the same account that establishes the call. For more information, see ““Receiving a call” on page 273 and ““Menu features” on page 275.

In all cases, if you initiate the call by pressing a line key, then the account associated with that particular line key takes precedence.
