2 Access to your own mailbox
To access your own mailbox, you should know the voice mail directory number, your
mailbox number and your security password. You get your voice mail number from
your technical manager. Please write it down on your user's memo. The mailbox
number is the same as your directory extension number, unless changed by the
technical manager. In standard configuration, the initial password is 1234 for all
mailboxes. You can change it whenever you want. Your password consists of 4
digits including * and #.
When entering your new password, any incorrect digit or elapsed time (6 seconds)
is signaled by a voice announcement and you are invited to dial it again.

3 Customize your mailbox
To customize your own mailbox, follow the instructions given by the voice menu.
Then dial ∗ to access the mailbox menu.
You can directly dial this key when connected to the mailbox to avoid listening to the
full menu, which gives all the menu options.
In general, it is always possible to shorten the current announcement by dialing the
appropriate service digit you want to use to avoid listening to the complete menu
announcements.

In answering-only mode, the caller receives your recorded message and there is no
menu for interactivity.
This mode is useful when in vacation or you don't want to receive any messages.
When the technical manager activates this mode, your callers will be immediately
transferred to this message. Usually this message notifies the caller to callback after
the specified date.
Dial 5. The sub-menu is the same as for the welcome message (see
above).
3.3 Enter your personal assistant number
The personal assistant mode is used to give several possibilities to your callers,
according to your own organization. They can:
• leave a message in your mailbox
• be transferred:
• to the reception desk.
• to your assistant’s extension, or your GSM, or any internal/external number.
When the technical manager activates this mode, you can enter the relevant number

3.4 Program the external notification
MD Evolution Contact allows you to program the external notification in addition to
the internal notification.
You can program any external number where you can be notified of new incoming
voice messages.
For example, when out of the office, you will be informed at home or on your GSM of
any new incoming voice message. Or it can be another internal number such as a
DECT mobile.
