Chapter 18 Configuring Advanced Voice Mail
Configuring Broadcast Messages
All subscribers at the remote location receive the broadcast message. The recipients hear the message
immediately after logging in to their voice mailboxes. The recipients cannot interrupt the message with
any DTMF key. Recipients can save or delete the broadcast message; they cannot reply or forward a
broadcast message.
The system administrator at each location determines how or when the message waiting indicator (MWI)
lights.
It is possible for the MWI lights to turn on for a broadcast message on some systems but not for others.
