ABOUT VOICE MAIL
Voice mail is an application that is part of the Inter-Tel Voice Processor. With the
voice mail application, you and other callers can send and receive recorded messages
from any digital endpoint, multi-protocol endpoint, or other device on the telephone
system. To use voice mail, each user is assigned a voice mailbox, which usually corre-
sponds to a valid extension number. You can, however, have an “unassociated” mail-
box that does not correspond to an extension. Unassociated mailboxes are typically
used for agents or other personnel who don’t have a permanent office.
With your voice mailbox, you can use personal or system greetings to let callers know
if you are out of town, on a call, etc. (see page51). If a caller reaches your voice mail-
box, they can leave a message, hang up, or access the attendant.
In addition, the voice mail administrator can program the name for “group lists” of
mailboxes. With these lists, you can send a message to a group of people by entering
one number instead of everyone’s individual mailbox number.
NOTE: You cannot cancel unheard (unretrieved) messages that are sent using group
lists (see page55 ).
