■
After you call the Automated Attendant, without calling the person’s extension (this is called “Quick

■
After you call your Subscriber Mailbox (or Guest Mailbox, if allowed in programming) and get the
Voice Mail system Main Menu
If you pause too long while recording, or if you exceed the recording limit, the Voice Mail system lets you

or,
You have exceeded the recording limit.
