Initial Programming
Assigning Outcalling Privileges
When the system is first installed, the Outcalling feature is not assigned to any
mailbox.
CAUTION:
Before you assign mailboxes Outcalling privileges, you should consider
the several system performance and security issues: If the privilege is
assigned to a majority of users and their message traffic is heavy, system
performance could be adversely affected. Outcalling attempts could be
delayed. in rare instances, an Outcall may not be performed if it is
delayed beyond the scheduled Outcalling period.
Additionally, there are no restrictions on the Outcalling numbers entered
by subscribers. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you limit the
number of subscribers who have the Outcalling privilege. And call
restrictions should be used for the communications system. See
“Outgoing Call Restriction” earlier in this chapter for details.
