PERSONAL GREETINGS
The options available in this menu will be determined by your System Administrator, and not all of them may be available to you. In the simplest systems, only a mailbox greeting will be available. Additional greetings may be accessible in more complex systems.
Your Personal Greeting will be played every time someone dials your extension and you do not answer.
You may record up to nine Personal Greetings, and you may assign any one of them to be active.
