Options available while and after listening to a 
message:

After listening to a message, do one of the 
following:

• Delete the message.
• Save the message.
• Forward the message to a mailbox.

In most cases, you probably delete the message. 
If you save it, be aware that the system 
automatically erases messages after a period of 
time. This "time" is called the 

retention period

 

and is typically set to a week or so, but ask the 
system administrator to be sure.

Forward 

- Allows you to pass the message 

along to another mailbox owner. To use this 
feature you must know the mailbox number 
of the person to forward the message to. You 
may then forward the message as is, or add 
your introductory comments (preamble) to 
the message. These comments are heard 
first by the person retrieving the message 
followed by the forwarded message.

NOTES

Even if a message is forwarded, it must be
either deleted or saved.
