Master Mailbox
Description
IntraMail uses Master Mailboxes as the over
fl
ow destination for Department Calling Group over
fl
ow. If a
trunk call to the Department Group master (pilot) number is unanswered, the call can optionally route to the
Master Mailbox. There are 16 available Master Mailboxes. Each Master Mailbox can be one of four mailbox
types: Call Routing, Announcement, Subscriber, and Directory Dialing.
■
Call Routing Mailbox
This gives the Department Group caller additional dialing options if their call is unanswered.
■
Announcement Mailbox
This plays a prerecorded announcement to the Department Group caller if their call is unanswered.
The Announcement Mailbox can then hang up or provide additional dialing options.
■
Subscriber Mailbox
The Department Group caller can leave a message in the group’s master mailbox. A Member of the
group can then retrieve the message later on.
■
Directory Dialing
If the Department Group call is unanswered, Directory Dialing allows the caller to reach an extension
by dialing the
fi
rst few letters in the extension user’s name.
Master Mailboxes can be the Department Group over
fl
ow destination for the following types of calls:
■
A
Screened Transfer
from the IntraMail Automated Attendant to the Department Group master (pilot)
number. See
Programming Department Calling Group Over
ow for Screened Transfers (TRFs)
■
An
Unscreened Transfer
from the IntraMail Automated Attendant to the Department Group master
(pilot) number.
Programming Department Calling Group Over
■
A
Direct Inward Line
to the Department Group master (pilot) number. See
ow for a DIL to the Master Number
Automated Attendant Callers can also access a Master Mailbox. When the mailbox is set up as a Subscriber
Mailbox, an Automated Attendant caller can do a remote logon or leave a Quick Message in the Master
Mailbox. If the Master Mailbox is a Call Routing, Announcement, or Directory Dialing Mailbox, you can set
up a GOTO action in the active Dial Action Table to enable single-digit access to the Master Mailbox.
Using a Master Mailbox as an Additional Resource
You can also use a Master Mailbox as an additional resource (for example, as an extra Directory Dialing or
Call Routing Mailbox). When used this way, the Master Mailbox does not have to be assigned to a Depart-
ment Calling Group. See
47-03-02: Master Mailbox Number
on page 206 for more on how to set this up.
