About mailbox options

You can set the mailbox options for Subscriber (including Guest) mailboxes:

Alternate DN1

Associates another extension with this mailbox, for Call Answering purposes. The number does not have to be an extension number, but it must be a number not associated with any other mailbox. Alternate DN1 in not available if the Primary Extension box is blank. Alternate DN1 is useful if the subscriber has more than one extension, such as a Companion set, associated with the mailbox for Call Answering purposes.

Alternate DN2 to DN5

Similar to Alternate Extension 1, but is not available unless Alternate Extension 1 is used.

Express Messaging Line

Delivers voice or voice and fax calls to a Subscriber mailbox without ringing the set. If the Express Messaging Line is answered by the Auto Attendant, it switches to fax receive mode, accepts a fax message and puts the message in the Subscriber mailbox.

Message Waiting

Sends a Message Waiting indication to the extension when new messages are added to the mailbox. This box is empty if the Primary Extension box is empty.

Auto-Login

Auto-Login gives subscribers a streamlined log on.

Mailbox Restrictions

Controls subscriber access to a mailbox. A subscriber cannot log in to the mailbox externally. If the subscriber attempts to log in externally, the prompt "You are not allowed to use this feature. Exiting the system, good-bye.” is played. The system disconnects the caller.

Park and Page

Lets callers press 6 to park the call while the subscriber is paged.

Call Screening

Asks callers coming through the Auto Attendant to record their name and wait on hold so the subscriber can accept or decline the call.
