Using SMS mailboxes
The
general mailbox
is the default setting.
Anyone can access this mailbox and it can-
not be protected by a PIN. You can set up
three additional
personal mailboxes
and
protect these with a
PIN
. Each mailbox is
identified by a name and a "mailbox ID" (a
kind of extension number).
Please note:
u
If you operate a number of devices
(bases) with SMS functionality on a single
phone line, then each SMS mailbox ID
may only occur once. In this case, you
must also change the preset ID of the
general mailbox ("0").
u
Only use personal mailboxes if your serv-
ice provider supports this function. You
can tell whether this is the case by the
addition of a star (*) to the number of a
(preset) SMS centre.
u
If you have forgotten your mailbox PIN,
you can reset it by restoring the base's
default settings. This will
delete all SMS
messages from all mailboxes
.
