Use Special Characters for Pagers
In most cases, you only need to call a pager to activate it. To set the voice
mail system to call these pagers, enter the pager telephone number in the
field for the message delivery telephone number followed by a few pauses
and a disconnect ( e.g. , 555-1234,,,Q) Q means disconnect.
Other pagers require that you dial the number, wait for answer, and then
dial the number the subscriber should call back. For details on how best to
deliver messages to these types of pagers, contact Technical Support.

Message groups let you send the same message to a group, such as a
department. You send a message to a
message group
just like you send
a message to a subscriber, identifying the group by name or group
number. The System Manager can create and maintain message groups
at the system console. Subscribers can also create and maintain their own
message groups from any touchtone telephone, by accessing setup
options. Guests cannot create or send messages to message groups.
This section explains how to create and maintain message groups.
The Group Owner
Every message group has an
owner
. The owner is either a subscriber that
creates the group by telephone or is assigned as the group owner by the
System Manager at the console. A System Manager can be a group
owner.
Only the owner of a group can change the group by telephone, including:
Add or delete group members
Change the group name or number
Delete the group itself.
However, the System Manager can change any group at the console.
