transport event sink A transport event sink is code that is activated through a defined trigger, such as the receipt of a new

message. When the Voice Connector is installed, it registers a transport event sink with the Windows

SMTP server. Transport events occur when messages flow through the SMTP core transport system.

The transport event sink is registered by the Voice Connector and monitors all incoming messages.

Messages that have the content type Multipart/Voice-Message and that are addressed to the SMTP

domain defined during the Voice Connector installation are readdressed to the Voice Connector by the

transport event sink. The transport event sink ensures that incoming VPIM messages are routed to the

Voice Connector for processing.

Trusted Internet

subscriber

Trusted Internet subscribers are Internet subscribers that are trusted with decrypted secure messages.

Trusted Internet subscribers must be associated with a Trusted Internet Location. Based on the security

settings of the Trusted Internet location, secure messages to Trusted Internet subscribers are decrypted

by the Cisco Unity Voice Connector for Microsoft Exchange before they are sent by the Exchange

server. (Messages to regular Internet subscribers are sent directly by the Exchange server and cannot

be decrypted and therefore cannot be played by the recipient.)

Trusted Internet

location

A delivery location that is used to configure decryption options for secure messages that are sent to

Trusted Internet subscribers.

UAmis account Outgoing AMIS messages are placed in a special Exchange mailbox that has the display name

UAmis_<Server name>. The AMIS schedule and AMIS delivery options in the Cisco Unity

Administrator allow you to control when outgoing AMIS messages will be sent.

UOmni account Administrative messages from the Bridge to create, modify, or delete Bridge subscribers are placed in

a special Exchange mailbox that has the display name UOmni_<Servername>. The Bridge Connector

(a Cisco Unity component that runs as a Windows service called CsBridgeConnector) monitors the

UOmni mailbox. When it receives a message, it parses the data and sends a request to the Cisco Unity

database component to make the necessary change (creation, modification, or deletion) to the Bridge

subscriber account.

UVPIM mailbox Administrative messages from the Voice Connector to create, modify, or delete VPIM subscribers are

placed in a special Exchange mailbox that has the display name UVPIM_<Servername>. The

CsVPIMConnector service that runs on the Cisco Unity VPIM bridgehead server monitors the UVPIM

mailbox. When it receives a message, it parses the data and sends a request to the Cisco Unity database

component to make the necessary change (creation, modification, or deletion) to the VPIM subscriber

account.

vCard A standard format for an electronic business card that includes fields for the phone number, text name,

and e-mail address of the message sender. Cisco Unity allows you to specify whether the voice name

and vCard of the sender will be sent with outgoing messages to a VPIM-compliant voice mail system.

If a vCard is attached to an incoming message from a VPIM system, the recipient can look at the vCard

data in Cisco Unity ViewMail for Microsoft Outlook. Cisco Unity can also be configured to update the

directory with information from the header or vCard data from incoming VPIM messages.
