4. Under “Integrated in the FRITZ!Box”, select the “Answer-
ing machine” option and confirm by clicking “Next”.
5. Specify the mode, greeting delay and greeting length. In
the “Greeting only” mode, callers cannot leave you any
messages.
6. Enter a name for the answering machine and confirm by
clicking “Next”.

cept. Select one or multiple telephone numbers and
confirm by clicking “Next”.

Changing Settings / Disabling Answering Machine
All configured answering machines are displayed in the
FRITZ!Box user interface under “Telephony / Telephony Devic-
es”. Here you can switch off or delete answering machines
and enable additional functions.
For instance, you can enable the “Send messages via e-mail”
setting for each answering machine. Messages callers leave
on the answering machine then will be sent to you by e-mail
(as audio files). You can select any e-mail address you want.
