6.8.2 TEMPORARY GREETING

As customers and subscribers begin to appreciate the speed of information flow with voice mail, it is

important to warn them when it may take longer then usual to respond to messages. The temporary

greeting allows subscribers to give a special notice to outside callers and subscribers. The temporary

greeting plays in place of the mailbox greeting when calls are answered in the telephone answering

mode. The temporary greeting is played after the mailbox owner’s name when selected as a destina-

tion by another subscriber. The greeting should emphasize that the subscriber will not be checking in

for messages frequently. It might be used to direct callers to someone who could help them.

The prompting for telephone answering is slightly different if the caller has a temporary greeting. Cal-

lers hear the temporary greeting and are then prompted with the usual prompts.

When subscribers enter their mailboxes while a temporary greeting is in effect, they hear a message

from the system that a temporary greeting is in effect. The system prompts subscribers to listen to the

greeting ’ ,

retain the greeting

, or deactivate the greeting

To establish a temporary greeting, from the main menu, dial:

6.8.3 ACCESS CODES

There is one access code that is associated with each subscriber mailbox. Each access code may be

from 1 to 9 digits long. The system administrator can program a minimum and maximum length for

mailbox access codes.

Zero

should not be used as the first digit. An initial, temporary access code

is given to each subscriber and is used to enter the system for the very first time; it should not be

used again.

To change access codes, subscribers use the Personal Options menu.
