Voice Mail Features (Option A Menu)
You can access the voice mail system on your phone by dialing
*09
or by pressing
the
Voice Mail
button.
System settings determine the number (and length) of voice mail messages that
are stored in your voice mailbox. If supported by your system, callers can press “0”
while they are “in” your mailbox to transfer to your main number or operator.
The voice mail system also provides both personal and group distribution lists
which let you send a voice mail to a defined group of people as easily as sending
a voice mail to a single user. Combining the ability to compose a voice mail
message before sending it with a distribution list, you can easily create and send a
voice mail message to multiple users or lists.
NOTE:
The voice mail system can only save a certain number messages as configured
by your service provider. If the maxium number of messages is reached and you
receive a new voice mail message, it will not be stored. You must delete some old
voice mail messages to receive any more.
