Note that there may be a risk of toll fraud associated with your telecommunications system, and if toll fraud occurs, it can result in substantial additional charges for your telecommunications services.

You and your system manager are responsible for the security of your system such as programming and configuring your equipment to prevent unauthorized use. The system manager is also responsible for reading all installation, instruction, and system administration documents provided with this product in order to fully understand the features that can introduce risk of toll fraud and the steps that can be taken to reduce that risk. AT&T does not warrant that this product is immune from or will prevent unauthorized use of common-carrier telecommunication services or facilities accessed through or connected to it.

Introduction

The MERLIN MAIL® Voice Messaging System Release 3 acts like a sophisticated answering machine that allows users to create, retrieve, and forward messages. Callers from inside and outside your company can leave messages in your mailbox, which you can listen to, forward,

save, or discard. A password you create keeps messages private.

You can also send messages, reply to messages, or add your comments to a message and forward both to other people in your company. Your

MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System may operate in one language (monolingual mode) or two languages (bilingual mode). The languages supported are English (North American), French (Canadian), and

Spanish (Latin American) in monolingual mode, and English/French or

English/Spanish in bilingual mode. If you have questions about system features and procedures, see your

system manager.

Helpful Hints

■

Program an

Auto Dial

button on your phone for one-touch dialing into

the MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System. Never program a

[7] ; or call in on a line answered by your system operator and ask to be transferred to the MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System; or call in on a telephone line assigned to the MERLIN MAIL Voice Mail Service.

■

You do not have to wait for voice mail greetings or prompts to finish if

you know the correct command sequence—just enter the digits.

■

You may hear messages telling you that your mailbox is more than 80

percent full or is full when you log into the system. (These messages are uninterruptible.) You should delete unneeded voice messages, in order to make more storage room for messages.

Voice Mail Tips

Most people use the voice messaging system to answer their telephone when they are not available. The most important consideration is to help people feel comfortable leaving a message. The following suggestions will help you make effective use of your voice messaging system.

■ Update your personal greeting regularly. Callers feel most

comfortable leaving a message when greetings convey a subscriber’s status.

■ In your greeting let callers know when you will return their call.

■ Include information in your greeting about how callers can reach a

co-worker who can help them if you are not available.

■ Tell your callers how they can easily reach someone “live” if their call

is an emergency.

If you reach a voice mailbox when calling someone follow these suggestions:

■ If you leave a message, explain why you are calling, and when you

need a response.

■ Keep your message brief and to the point.

■ If you are requesting information, leave your name, full address,

telephone number or fax number.

■ If your call is urgent, or you need assistance immediately, try

pressing [0]

■ Let the person you called know when it is convenient to call you back.

Transferring To An Extension

While in Voice Mail, you can transfer to another extension:

Step 1 Step 2

Extension Directory

Press [*]

[T] (or [*] [8]) to transfer your call.

Choose an option:

Enter Extension to which you want to transfer the call. Press [*]

[A] (or [*] [2] ) to transfer by name using the

Directory. Go to Step 2 of Using the Directory.

Page 15

Using The Directory

You can use the directory to send or forward a message to other voice mail subscribers or to transfer to a voice mail subscriber’s extension.

Ask your system manager if subscribers are listed in the directory by first or last name.

To use the directory when addressing a message or after pressing [*] [T] (or [*] [8]) to transfer to another extension, follow these steps:

Step 1 Step 2

Press [*]

[A] (or [*] [2]) to access the directory.

Dial the first four letters of the name.

Example: To find the extension for John Conlin if users are listed by last name, you would dial 2665(CONL). If the users are listed by first name, dial 5646(JOHN).

NOTE:

Use [7] for the letter Q. Use [9] for the letter Z. One of the following actions occurs:

Step 3

■ A match is made. You exit the directory.

■ The letters match more than one person.

The system announces the names that match. Select

one.

■ No match is found. You exit the directory.

Outcalling

Your system manger may allow you to use the Outcalling feature. If you

have Outcalling privileges, you can specify up to five different numbers

that the voice messaging system will call when you receive a new

message. This is sometimes called “Cascaded Outcalling.” Each

telephone number can have up to 60 digits. When you receive an Outcalling call on a telephone, the system allows

you to log into retrieve your messages. To cancel further Outcalling attempts for the new message, press [*] [#]

instead of logging in. If you receive a new message, you will still receive

a new Outcalling call. To cancel Outcalling for all new messages, turn

Outcalling off.

Page 16

If Outcalling is on, the voice messaging system calls the designated phone numbers in the order that they are stored in the Outcalling list. This is called cascading. When a call is completed to a telephone or voice pager, the system plays a message which identifies the call as coming from the MERLIN MAIL system, and continues: "You have a new message. To access your new message, enter extension and [#].

To avoid further notification about this message, press [*] [#]. Please enter extension and [#]. " The Outcalling message does not play for digital pager calls. The pager will display the callback number that you have programmed in the pager’s Outcalling number. When you receive an Outcalling call on a digital pager, you must call into the voice messaging system to retrieve your messages.

Calling continues until one of the following actions occur:

■ During the Outcalling message call, you press [*] [#] to cancel

Outcalling until a new message arrives.

■ You log in to your MERLIN MAIL Voice Messaging System mailbox.

■ The Outcalling interval specified in your schedule is over.

■ The voice messaging system has attempted to deliver the message

(by calling all numbers in your Outcalling list) the number of times specified through the Outcalling cycles programming option.

Use the following general rules to specify an Outcalling number:

Up to 60 characters may be used. End the Outcalling number with [*]

[#].

Use the digits [0] - [9] for the Outcalling number itself.

■ Specify 1.5 second dialing pauses, as needed, with [*]. More than

one [*]

may be used.

■ For Outcalling to a pager you must put a sufficient number of pauses

([*])

after the phone number to allow time for the paging service to answer before the Personal Identification Number (PIN) or callback number is dialed.

■ Put a [#] in your Outcalling number where needed. One example is

Outcalling to a digital paging service where a PIN needs to be followed by a [#].

■ You cannot have a [*] followed immediately by a [#] in your

Outcalling number. When you press [*]

[#] you are telling the system

that you have finished entering your Outcalling number.

■ Enter [*] [#] to signal the end of the number.

For a digital pager or beeper number:

Enter digits ([0]

- [9]) and pauses ([*]) or pound signs ([#]) required

to place the call; include any access numbers needed.

Example: To specify an access number, a 1.5 second pause, the paging service number (555-1234), a 4.5 second pause, a PIN

(1234) followed by a # and a callback number (555-3456) followed by a # enter:

[9] [*] [5] [5] [5] [1] [2] [3] [4] [*] [*] [*] [1] [2] [3] [4] [#] [5] [5] [5] [3] [4] [5] [6] [#]
