IP Messaging
Overview
Features that are supported only on VCX systems are noted throughout
this User Guide.
The IP Messaging (IPM) Module is part of the 3Com Convergence
Applications Suite. IP Messaging centralizes and integrates voice mail,
e-mail, and fax mail so users can combine communications modes and
take advantage of powerful message handling and distribution features.
The IP Messaging Module provides services that enable users to contact
each other and access information in a customized way. This product is
used primarily for:
Facsimile is supported only on VCX systems.
■ Voice mail
■ Unified messaging (the integration of voice, facsimile, and e-mail into
a single inbox for message retrieval and management)
12CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
IP Messaging enables users to see their voice and fax mail as e-mail and
hear e-mail messages over the phone. Users can also schedule message
delivery and send voice mails to an individual or group of fellow users,
which is aided by extensive, easily maintained distribution list capabilities.
IP Messaging uses the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) standard for
signaling. The IP Messaging architecture enables service providers to
deploy applications in basic, small-scale systems or in complex, fully
redundant, large-scale distributed or centralized systems. IP Messaging
communicates with external IP network resources by using a SIP gateway
or directly connected SIP endpoints.

Initializing Your
Mailbox
This section describes how to initialize and access your IPM mailbox
through your phone’s Telephone User Interface (TUI).
The System Administrator provides the telephone number or internal
extension number for first-time users. To initialize your mailbox:
1 Dial the IP Messaging access number or press MSG.
2 At the password prompt, enter the default password. You can set your
own password by following the voice instructions.
The default password is the last 4 digits of the mailbox number. If the
mailbox number is only 3 digits, then the password is the mailbox
number.
The voice prompt describes the initialization process and introduces the
Setup Assistant function.
3 Follow the voice prompts:

b To record a name announcement
c To record a personal greeting

schedule to any method that uses the filter.
These tasks are described in the next three sections.
The three Notification options appear on the Mailbox Options menu only

must include the specified field value for user notification to occur. For
example, if the Subject field value is “Status report” and the Subject Operator is ==, only messages that include the string “Status report”
in the subject line result in user notification.
