Creating, Changing, and Using Group Lists
A Group List consists of extensions (up to 99) assigned to a single group.
That group of extensions is assigned a Group List number. When a subscriber
sends a message to a Group List number instead of an extension number, the
message is sent to all of the voice mailboxes contained in the Group List.
Subscribers can be members of several different Group Lists. As the system
administrator, you can create and maintain up to 99 Group Lists for use by
voice mail subscribers.
Like Group Lists, the Broadcast message feature lets you send a message to
many subscribers at the same time. Unlike Group Lists, the Broadcast
message feature:
■
■
Can only be used by you, the system administrator.
Sends the message to every subscriber, not just the members of a
single Group List.
For more details on Broadcast messages, refer to “Sending a Broadcast
Message to All Subscribers” later in this chapter.
Administering Group Lists
Creating and maintaining the Group Lists is your responsibility as system
administrator. Be sure to keep all of the subscribers informed about changes
to the Group Lists, so that they can make best use of this feature.
