Configuring E-mail Settings

The e-mail integration enables subscribers to use text-to-speech technology to use a phone to listen to e-mail

messages. Subscribers can include e-mail message totals in the new message count, automatically forward all voice

messages to the e-mail inbox, and forward all incoming faxes to the e-mail inbox.

E-mail integration provides users with 24-hour access to e-mail from any touchtone phone. The integration uses

standard protocols to access, read and send e-mail messages on the messaging system. The protocols required for

integration include IMAP and POP3. For outgoing e-mail features to work, the e-mail system must support the SMTP

protocol.

1. In the Navigation Pane, click System > Configuration > E-mail settings.

For detailed field information, see the System > Configuration > E-mail settings table.
