Message Retention Time

The amount of time the system will store a message before deleting the message.

Message Retrieval Order

The order in which the subscriber retrieves messages: Last In First Out (LIFO) or First In First Out (FIFO).

Message Transfer

Allows a subscriber to reroute a message to another mailbox unless the message was marked "private." Additional comments can be added to this message.

Message Waiting Lamp

Light on proprietary telephones that lights when there are messages in the mailbox.

Message Waiting Notification

The VPS can notify subscribers and the Message Manager when they have received messages (if authorized by the System Administrator or the System Manager). Notification methods are: (1) by Message Waiting Lamp, or (2) by telephone, or (3) by beeper.

Multilingual Selection Menu

This menu is recorded by the Message Manager and allows callers to choose the language they want (System, User 1 or User 2 prompts) when they call the VPS.

Non-Subscriber

A caller to the VPS who does not own a mailbox.

Notification Method

(See Message Waiting Notification.)

Operator

Up to three destinations can be assigned as operators. This is the extension that receives calls when the calling party is on a rotary phone or dials [0].

Owner's Name

After a subscriber records his name, his name will be announced during transfers, Intercom Paging, and confirmation of Dialing by Name.

Independent of this recording is registration of name by System Administrator. This allows callers to dial parties by name (Dialing by Name) rather than by number. For example, a caller can dial "S-M-I-T" (Smith) rather than Smith's mailbox number, which can be hard to remember.
