NEC 17600SUG05 Recording a Mailbox Greeting/Name

You can record up to three different personal greetings for your mail-

box to let callers know your whereabouts before they leave you a mes-

sage. NVM-Series plays the greeting that you select as "active."

Atypical greeting is:

●

Hello. I'm away from my desk right now. Please leave a mes-

sage at the tone, and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

You may also want to record a greeting for vacation days, and one for

evenings. It's up to you. If you do not record a greeting, NVM-Series

lets the caller know how to leave a message.

Once a greeting is recorded, you can turn Auto Attendant Do Not

Disturb on or off.

■If you turn Auto Attendant Do Not Disturb on, Automated Attendant

calls will not ring your phone. This is great if you've got a lot of

paperwork to do and no time to spend on the phone. NVM-Series

immediately sends the caller to your mailbox and plays your greeting.

■If you turn Auto Attendant Do Not Disturboff, Automated Attendant

calls will try your phone. If you do not answer or are busy on a call,

NVM-Series plays your greeting. If you have forwarded calls to

your mailbox, you should turn off Auto Attendant Do Not Disturb.

Notes: (1) AMailbox Greeting can be recorded for Subscriber, Guest,

and Alias Network Mailboxes.

(2) If your Subscriber Mailbox is programmed with a Next Call

Routing Mailbox, a caller can press one or more codes during

or after your greeting to re-route their call. For example, after a

caller leaves you a message, they can dial someone else's

extension. (See the System Administrator for the type of

options programmed for your Next Call Routing Mailbox. It is

important that you include these dialing options in your mail-

box greeting. Otherwise, callers will not know about them.)
