Each sub-mailbox holder can set their own notification options to their own pager and/or cell phone. Mailbox-to-mailbox messages can be sent through the system to each sub-mailbox. Address the message using 11-digits. For example, use 20755512341 for sub-mailbox 1 of mailbox 2075551234. Messages addressed to the 10-digit mailbox number will be deposited in the base mailbox. 7 If you know what key to press, you can make your selection at any time. No need to wait for the system to finish speaking the prompts or menus. Once you are familiar with the system, use the Personal Profile to change your prompt level to Quick Prompts. When in the office or on the road, save time by setting up one of the Notification Options. No need to call until you have a message to retrieve. Use the autoplay feature under Message Preferences so your new messages will start playing as soon as you log into your mailbox. If you press no keys after hearing a message, the message will automatically be saved then the next message will play. When you will have limited time/access to voice mail, use the Extended Absence Greeting option to block callers from leaving a message. After a saved message expires, the next time you log into your mailbox you must take action on that messages before you can hear new messages or make any changes to your mailbox.
