Leaving a message by phone

The system lets you leave voice mes- sages for subscribers, groups, or guests. If you call a subscriber’s extension and the call is unanswered, your call is auto- matically routed to the subscriber’s mailbox, where you can leave a message. You can also leave messages directly in a subscriber’s mailbox.

If your phone system uses identified subscriber messaging, the system auto- matically tags a message from your assigned extension with your name.

If your phone system does not use iden- tified subscriber messaging or you are calling from another subscriber’s exten- sion, you need to identify yourself as a subscriber by entering your personal ID and security code.

Directory assistance

Your system may use automatic direc- tory assistance, numeric directory assis- tance, or both, to help callers find subscribers’ extension numbers.

Callers with letters on their phones can use automatic directory assistance, which identifies subscribers by their last names. All callers can use numeric directory assistance, which groups sub- scribers by department, location,

or some other category.

Special delivery options

When you leave an identified subscriber message, you can mark it with one or more of these special delivery options:

Urgent The message is played first, before regular messages.

Private The message cannot be redi- rected.

Return receipt The system tells you when a subscriber has heard the mes- sage.

Future delivery The message is deliv- ered at the time and day you specify.
