Sending Messages Using Broadcast
or Group Lists
You can send messages to many subscribers at the same time by using the
following features:
■
■
Broadcast—allows the system administrator to send a message to
all subscribers.
Group Lists—allows any subscriber to send a message to
subscribers on a Group List.
Sending a Broadcast Message
to All Subscribers
The Broadcast feature allows you to “broadcast” a message to all the
subscribers on the system without having to enter each extension individually.
When you broadcast a message to all subscribers, the message is sent out
immediately. However, the message-waiting indicator on each phone does
not light until 3 a.m.
NOTE:
Outcalling is not performed for Broadcast messages. In addition,
Broadcast messages are not sent to the system administrator’s mailbox,
the Trouble Mailbox, or the General Mailbox.
