Chapter 5: Setting Up Mailboxes 81
sage and stores it for the current mailbox and/or the mail-
box specified by Copy Messages To.
To keep a mailbox out of the employee directory, leave the
Directory Name 1 and Directory Name 2 text boxes blank.
In this case, you might want to put the user’s name in the
Comment field.
Remember that a user can go by a nickname. The Directory
Name 1 field might contain the nickname. For example, for
someone named Thomas, are people going to enter T-o-m
for Tom or T-h-o for Thomas?
To add a menu, create a greeting that explains the menu,
and direct the user to different mailboxes based on the se-
lection from the menu. For details, see “Menus” on
page 95.
Creating a Mailbox for Someone Without a Telephone
A user who is offsite or, for some other reason, has no onsite telephone can
still have a mailbox. Create a personal mailbox for that user. Then log on to
the mailbox to turn on Do Not Disturb.
Creating Mailboxes Automatically
If Amanda is connected to a Norstar KSU and you have requested the
autocreate feature (by setting the configuration option tmo_names to a
number greater than 0), Amanda can:
• Automatically create a mailbox based on the mailbox template (usu-
ally mailbox 997) for each Norstar KSU telephone extension
• Place the unique name associated with that extension in the
Set Name text box for the newly created mailbox
Amanda does not overwrite any existing mailboxes during this process.
Therefore, autocreate can use the Norstar KSU’s telephone extensions for
either of the following:
• To create mailboxes for the initial users of the system
• To add mailboxes for new extensions—without affecting those cre-
ated previously
• To update the name in the Set Name text box
