Personalizing Your Mailbox
Using Message Notification
With Message Notification, you can have the voice mail call you when you receive messages. You can specify the type of number you wish Sprint® Digital Voice to call: outside, extension or digital pager. Once you enable Message Notification, Sprint Digital Voice will call you as soon as you receive your first message. If you accept the call at a telephone, or if the paging service gets through to you and you log onto your mailbox, Sprint Digital Voice will not notify you again until you receive new messages. Once you log off of your mailbox, Sprint Digital Voice waits five minutes before notifying you of any new messages. After 5 minutes elapse, you will be notified immediately of any new messages.
However, if the voice mail calls the number and gets no answer (after five rings), it will try again after 30 minutes. If Sprint Digital Voice calls the number again and gets busy tone, it will try the number again after 10 minutes. If Sprint Digital Voice is calling a paging number, it waits eight seconds for the paging service to answer before calling the callback number (which is the mailbox number and #). If your paging service takes longer than eight seconds to answer, enter *p (pause) at the end of the number you entered to allow more time for your paging service to respond. Each *p is two seconds. If the number is busy or if reorder tone is received, Sprint Digital Voice will try the paging number again after 10 minutes. Sprint Digital Voice will try calling the number for a total of three times before giving up.

You then enter the notification number.)
