Activating the Call Screening feature
When you change a mailbox owner’s Personal Mailbox Transfers (Xfers) option to
Screened, the Call Screening feature allows the mailbox owner to determine who is
calling before accepting the call. Call Screening is useful when there is no Caller ID
available. Norstar Voice Mail records the caller’s name, calls the mailbox owner’s
telephone, announces the name of the caller and offers various options such as
accept the call or take a message.
Call Screening applies to external calls dialed by callers using the DN dialing
facilities of the Auto Attendant or Custom Call Routing (CCR). It does not apply to
internal calls, or external calls routed using a CCR transfer point or placed to the
mailbox owner’s dedicated line. If the caller is calling from a line for which the
mailbox owner has recorded a Personalized Greeting, Call Screening is bypassed
and the call is transfered without delay.
When the Xfers option is on Screened, Norstar Voice Mail still calls a mailbox
owner’s telephone that is call forwarded.
The default for Call Screening is Blind, which means that mailbox owners will not
be able to determine who is calling before answering.
Norstar Voice Mail Message Waiting Notification
Message Waiting Notification provides the user with a visual indication on the
telephone display that one or more new messages are waiting to be heard.
The default value for Message Waiting Notification is Yes. This means Norstar
Voice Mail will leave a
Message for you
notification on a Norstar telephone
display. When the Message Waiting Notification is changed to No, Norstar Voice
Mail does not leave a
Message for you
notification.
When you add Guest Mailboxes, the Message Waiting Notification must be set to
No. These mailboxes do not have an operating Norstar DN. When you add a Guest
Mailbox to a single-line telephone, the Message Notification must be set to No at
the ATA. Single-line telephones do not have a display.
Outdial route
The Outdial route determines which line or line pool the system uses when a
mailbox owner wishes to Reply to a message left by an external caller, and when
Off-premise Message Notification and Outbound Transfer are used.
The default for Outdial route is None. Until you assign a line or line pool as the
Outdial route for a mailbox, the mailbox owner can use the Reply Feature to reply
to calls from internal DNs only, Off-premise Message Notification for internal DNs
only and Outbound Transfer for internal DNs only.
Dialing restrictions can be applied to the Norstar telephone and the DNs connected
to Norstar Voice Mail. If you wish to restrict outdialing of certain phone numbers,
you must do one of the following:
