PARENT MAILBOX NO.
The Parent Mailbox Number field is used only for Group Functionality Mailboxes when
two or more extensions share a common telephone. When this occurs, the telephone’s
extension number is entered as the Parent Mailbox.
By doing this, the Courier now can set the Message Light on that telephone when the
mailbox has a message. This also establishes the ‘parent-child’ relationship between the
mailboxes. In a parent-child relationship, the caller presses the parent mailbox number.
Courier then offers the caller the option of pressing a single digit to choose which ‘child’
they wish to speak with.
In all cases, the same telephone will ring (the parent mailbox telephone). However, upon
a busy or no answer condition, the caller will be routed to the personal voice mail
greeting of the person they had chosen.
RINGS TO EXTENSION
This parameter is only functional for API integrated installations. Enter the number of
rings desired at this extension before Courier transfers a caller to the personal greeting.
This function is only used when Monitored is selected. In this case, the API link is
screening the transfer and forwarding to voice mail instead of the DBS extension Call
Forwarding parameters.
EXTENSION LIGHT
Enter an extension number in this field when you wish to light the message light of a
telephone other than the mailbox number you are programming.
This function is useful for company mailboxes that do not have an extension associated
with the mailbox.
Note: If a number is entered in the Parent Mailbox field, it will override this setting.
MAILBOX PASSWORD
You may enter a user password for the block of mailboxes being set, or choose not to
enter a password and leave the field blank. By leaving the password field blank, anyone
can access mailboxes in the block and can perform any allowed functions until the user
designates a password via their Voicemail Setup.
Note: The user password is a temporary password that should be changed later by the Mailbox
owner through their Voicemail Setup function.
