Voice Messaging Systems
Two Lucent Technologies voice messaging systems are compatible with your
system. You can install one or the other, depending on your business needs:
The
PARTNER MAIL VS Voice Messaging System,
which physically
resembles a 206 module, resides in the control unit.
The
PARTNER MAIL Voice Messaging System
is an auxiliary device
that connects to the system through extension jacks.
Both voice messaging systems offer your business
complete call processing
features. Specifically, they can:
Insure that incoming calls are answered and directed to destination
extensions correctly and efficiently, using immediate or delayed call
handling. (Immediate call handling sends calls directly to the voice
messaging system, while delayed call handling allows the receptionist to
answer calls first.)
Answer and route calls during the day and after normal business hours.
Alleviate the problem of inaccurate or incomplete messages by allowing
callers to leave detailed, confidential messages for subscribers.
Allows subscribers to assign a password to their mailbox, change their
personal greeting, and retrieve messages.
The PARTNER MAIL system also offers advanced voice mail features, such as
outcalling, group lists, broadcast messages, and fax management. For
complete details, contact your Lucent Technologies Representative or local
Authorized Dealer, or refer to the documentation provided with the voice
messaging system.
Delayed Call Handling
Figure 4-14 shows a PARTNER MAIL VS system that provides delayed call
handling. This setup allows the receptionist at extension 10 to provide
personalized service by answering calls during normal business hours. The
PARTNER MAIL VS system (connected to extensions Z1 and Z2) handles calls
when the receptionist is busy or not available, so calls do not go unanswered.
The PARTNER MAIL VS system also answers calls received outside of business
hours and prompts callers to leave a message in the receptionist’s mailbox.
This example also includes two user extensions (X and Y), which are not
automatically covered by the PARTNER MAIL VS system. This allows the
receptionist to give the caller more personalized service; if the receptionist
transfers a call to extension X or Y and that extension does not answer, the call
returns to the receptionist. The receptionist can then take a message or send
the call to the extension’s mailbox if the caller prefers.
