Recording Your Personal Greeting

Before you record, note that callers who hear your personal greeting can enter an extension number to transfer to another extension, or they can press [ 0 ] to reach the receptionist before or after your greeting plays. In your personal greeting, you may want to prompt the caller for these options.

NOTE:

If your mailbox is full, callers hear your personal greeting then the message "Sorry you cannot leave a message now because this user's mailbox is full." To leave a message, they must transfer either to the receptionist's extension to leave a message, or to another subscriber's extension.

If you would like to talk to the receptionist, press [ 0 ]. Otherwise, please leave your name, phone number, and a brief message at the sound of the tone."
