About working with voice messages in the Client ___________

You can manage your voice messages in the Strata CS Client in the same way that you manage e-mail messages in your e-mail program. Your new voice messages appear in a list in the Inbox folder of the Voice Messages view according to the time and the caller. You can listen to them in any order you want, and you can easily forward them, reply to them, or archive them in other folders that you create.

This chapter describes the Voice Messages view and then explains the following aspects of working with voice messages in the Client:

The Voice Messages view

The Voice Messages view contains your voice messages. It contains two predefined folders:

nThe Inbox. New voice messages appear here. After you listen to them, they remain here unless you move or delete them.

nThe Saved folder. Saved messages appear here. When you save a message by using the telephone commands, it moves to the Saved folder.

You can create as many custom folders as you want for storing voice messages. See “Using the Folder List” on page 7-16 for instructions on how to move voice messages between folders.
