Operating your Mailbox using VMS
Enable or disable call forwarding
Setting a greeting for call forwarding (CF):
Setting a greeting for call forwarding allows you to define what happens to calls that are re-di-
rected to your mailbox. If you have programmed a fixed call forwarding destination (CF), calls
will be re-directed to your mailbox if your extension is busy, you do not answer the call or if you
enable call forwarding to your mailbox.
● Accept messages or info greeting feature
You can use this feature to specify whether callers who are re-directed to your mailbox can
leave a message or not. Preventing callers from leaving messages is practical, for exam-
ple, if you are non-contactable for a long period of time. In this situation, you should provide
a message to alert callers to this fact.
● Greetings
Callers who are diverted to your mailbox hear a greeting (a generic greeting is set by de-
fault). The following types of greetings can be distinguished:
– Personal greetings:
You can record nine different personal greetings, enabling you to select an appropriate
greeting for any particular situation from this range of greetings.
