About this guide
The BCM50 3.0 Unified Messaging Configuration Guide describes how to install, configure, and
troubleshoot Unified Messaging on a Business Communications Manager (BCM) system and on
subscribers’ computers.
You can install CallPilot Unified Messaging on subscribers’ computers, or subscribers can
perform some configuration and troubleshooting tasks under your guidance.
About CallPilot Unified Messaging
CallPilot Unified Messaging is a multimedia messaging application. Unified Messaging works
with e-mail clients to provide a single graphical interface for e-mail messages and CallPilot voice,
fax and text messages.
7
Hardware requirements
The following list contains both the minimum and recommended hardware that Unified Messaging
software needs for operation.
• IBM PC or compatible:
— minimum Pentium/586 or faster system with 16 megabytes (MB) of RAM minimum; 32
MB recommended
• Monitor:
— 16-color VGA 640 x 480 capability minimum; 256-color SVGA 800 x 600 capability
recommended
• Disk drive space:
— To install Unified Messaging, subscribers need 110 MB of disk space. After the
installation is complete, the temporary files are automatically deleted to recover 55 MB of
disk space. You or the subscriber must manually delete the
CallPilotDesktopMessaging.exe file to recover the additional 55 MB. The.exe file is
located where you downloaded it.
•CD-ROM drive
• Windows-compatible mouse and keyboard
• LAN connection to Business Communications Manager 50. Subscribers can access their
CallPilot messages over the LAN through ISDN, ADSL, dial-up modem or Ethernet.
Note: When it is installed, Unified Messaging takes up 15MB of space
on the subscriber’s hard disk.
Unified Messaging Configuration Guide

Optional hardware
• a sound card and a set of speakers for playing messages on a computer
• a microphone for recording messages on a computer
Note: The maximum number of Unified Messaging clients supported on BCM50 is 50.
Software requirements
Windows operating systems
You can use Unified Messaging with:
• Windows 2000 Professional
•Windows XP
Unified Messaging also supports Citrix Mainframe XP Feature Release 3 and Citrix Program
Neighborhood Version 7.0
Supported Integrated clients
Integrated clients, also called groupware, is software designed for group collaboration. Integrated
clients run with a corporate e-mail server. Unified Messaging for integrated clients provides access
to commands and Unified Messaging Help directly from the client. During installation, Unified
Messaging customizes integrated clients to make messaging tasks simpler and more efficient.
Unified Messaging automatically performs most or all of the groupware configuration during
installation.
You can use Unified Messaging with one or more of these clients:
• Microsoft Outlook 2000
• Microsoft Outlook 2002/XP
• Microsoft Outlook 2003
• Novell GroupWise 6.x
• Lotus Notes 5.x, 6.x
Supported Internet mail clients
Internet mail clients are also called IMAP clients. It is an e-mail client that enables you to manage
CallPilot messages from a folder in the e-mail client using the IMAP protocol. You must manually
configure the Internet mail client with the settings required to connect to your system.
You can use Unified Messaging with these IMAP Internet clients:
• Microsoft Outlook Express 5.x and 6.x
• Microsoft Outlook 2000, Outlook 2002 (XP) and Outlook 2003 in Internet mail mode
• Netscape Messenger 6.2x
NN40080-501NN40080-501
• Netscape Mail 7.0
• Qualcomm Eudora Pro 6.1.2
Format for voice messages
Business Communications Manager 50 uses the G711 format to record and store voice messages.
CallPilot 150 uses G723.1. Since the Unified Messaging player records and plays messages in
WAV format, Business Communications Manager 50 or CallPilot messages must be converted to
WAV before playing, and composed messages must be converted to G711 or G723.1 to be stored
on Business Communications Manager 50 or CallPilot 150. This decoding and encoding is done
on the desktop client.
Audience
This guide is for system administrators who configure and maintain CallPilot and Unified
Messaging on a BCM system.

Configuring IMAP/LDAP/SMTP servers for Unified Messaging
CallPilot supports IMAP/LDAP protocols, which let Unified Messaging subscribers access their
CallPilot mailboxes using Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, Novell GroupWise, and selected
third-party Internet mail clients: Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, Netscape
Messenger, and Qualcomm Eudora Pro.
Each type of desktop client is configured and used slightly differently. To configure a specific
desktop client, refer to “Installing and configuring Unified Messaging” on page 17.
Although you individually configure each desktop client you use for Unified Messaging, you
configure Business Communications Manager the same way for all the desktop clients it supports.
Follow the instructions in this chapter to configure the IMAP/LDAP/ SMTP servers.
IMAP
Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) lets a client access and use electronic mail messages on
a server. These messages are always stored on Business Communications Manager.
Unified Messaging Configuration Guide
14 Chapter 2 Configuring your system for Unified Messaging
IMAP lets subscribers check for messages from any location with an Internet connection. IMAP
also lets subscribers access messages from multiple locations. IMAP is a method of accessing
electronic mail or bulletin board messages that are kept on a shared mail server. IMAP lets a client
e-mail program access remote message stores as if they were local. For example, e-mail stored on
an IMAP server can be accessed from a computer at home, a workstation at the office, and a
notebook computer while traveling, without the need to transfer messages or files between these
computers.
LDAP
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a set of protocols for accessing information
directories. LDAP supports TCP/IP, which is necessary for any type of Internet access. LDAP lets
a client search for and use information entries on a directory server, such as the Business
Communications Manager. For example, a typical entry in the CallPilot directory contains
attributes of a subscriber such as name, telephone number, and CallPilot mail address. Internet
clients can use LDAP to query address book information from the CallPilot directory, perform
address resolution, or search for specific subscribers (if this functionality is implemented by the
Internet client).
Note: Unified Messaging clients require LDAP authentication of the CallPilot
mailbox directory number and password to begin a search on a Business
Communications Manager LDAP directory.
SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is a protocol for sending e-mail messages between servers.
Most e-mail systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server
to another. These messages can then be retrieved with an e-mail client using IMAP. SMTP is also
generally used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server. This is why you must specify
both the IMAP server and the SMTP server when you configure your e-mail application.
Since Voice Profile for Internet Mail (VPIM) Networking also uses SMTP, you do much of the
configuration for IMAP in the same places you set up VPIM Networking.
Configuring environments without a DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP
addresses. Because domain names are alphabetic, they are easier for subscribers to remember. The
Internet is based on IP addresses. Every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS must
translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name
www.example.com can translate to 198.105.232.4.
If one DNS server does not know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one,
and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.
Unified Messaging uses Domain Name resolution, which is provided by a DNS. If your network
does not have a DNS, then you must configure Unified Messaging to use IP addresses.

Chapter 2 Configuring your system for Unified Messaging 15
For Internet Mail clients, the format for addressing a message is <SMTP/VPIM prefix><Mailbox
number>@<BCM HOST name>.localdomain.
Configuring Unified Messaging with IP address only
If you do not use DNS to resolve domain names, configure the Business Communications
Manager system and client computers to use an IP address only:
1 Ensure the Business Communications Manager is not configured to use DNS.
2 Ensure that Business Communications Manager is configured with a host name. If it is not,
enter the host name on the Business Communications Manager system.
3 Configure computers running Unified Messaging with the IP address of the Business
Communications Manager system.
To check that Business Communications Manager is not
configured to use DNS
Note: Before you check that the Business Communications Manager 50 is not
configured to use DNS, ensure the Business Communications Manager 50 is
using a static IP address and DHCP is disabled.

Installing and configuring Unified Messaging
It takes approximately 10 minutes to install Unified Messaging. Depending on the subscribers’
expertise, you can ask them to install Unified Messaging on their computer.
Installation information
Before you install Unified Messaging on a subscriber’s computer:
• Make sure the subscriber’s computer has the correct hardware and software requirements.
Refer to “Hardware requirements” on page 7 and “Software requirements” on page 8.
• If the subscriber has any version of Unified Messaging other than 2.5, you must uninstall the
earlier version before you do the installation procedure. Refer to “Uninstalling an earlier
version of Unified Messaging” on page 18.
17
• Ensure that the microphones, speakers, and sound cards that are connected to the subscriber’s
computer are configured. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation.
• If the subscriber is going to install Unified Messaging and wants to install the Fax Printer
Driver, the subscriber must have the right to impersonate a client after authentication. Refer to
the online Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q821546 for more information.
• Have this information available:
— the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the Business Communications Manager
system, or the IP address, if you do not have a DNS
— the SMTP/VPIM prefix of the Business Communications Manager. If you use Message
Networking, include this prefix
— the subscriber’s mailbox number
Note: If the subscriber uses Novell GroupWise, the subscriber must have Windows
Messaging 4.0 installed on their computer. Windows Messaging is usually installed
when Windows is installed on a computer. However, if Windows Messaging 4.0 is not
installed, the GroupWise installation gives you these options:
• Install the complete Windows Messaging system.
• Leave Windows Messaging as is.
Install the Complete Windows Messaging system even if Windows Messaging is already
installed. This ensures that the GroupWise option is available during Unified Messaging
installation.

Fax feature requirements
There are three new fax features added to CallPilot 2.5 Unified Messaging:
• Fax Mail Merge
• Custom Fax Cover Sheets
• Integrated Fax Messaging Controls
The CallPilot Fax Mail Merge feature allows you to customize and send fax messages to multiple
recipients using Microsoft Word’s Mail Merge utility.
When you use the Fax Mail Merge feature, you do not receive a delivery receipt to confirm the
recipients received the fax.
You do receive a failure notification, if any or all of the recipients do not receive the fax.
Note: You must select the Install Fax batch driver for mail merge
option during the installation of Unified Messaging to use the Fax Mail
Merge feature.
The Custom Fax Cover Sheets allow you to customize your fax cover sheets from the CallPilot
desktop client. You can use any digital image as the basis for the cover sheet and customize it for
each fax by providing sender information and a cover sheet memo. This information is
automatically merged with your cover sheet image when you fax the document.
Note: You can download the Custom Fax Cover Sheets from the
Administrator Applications Unified Messaging page on the Business
Communications Manager 50 web page.
Integrated Fax Messaging Controls allow you to create CallPilot messages, attach documents, and
view, annotate, and modify fax documents through the CallPilot custom form. This feature is
available only to the Windows Groupware clients: Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, and Novell
GroupWise.

fax keycode enabled do not select this check box.
Note: If the check box is selected and you have a fax keycode enabled, the header
information of the original message appears in a reply or forwarded message. The
message becomes a fax message because the headers are attached as a text
message.
Do not select the Include a message header when forwarding/replying check
box or add text to the message, although the New Text Message button is active, if
you do not have a fax keycode enabled. If you add text or message headers to the
message it does not remain as a voice message. It becomes a fax message.
If the Include a message header when forwarding/replying check box is
selected without the BCM fax keycode the forward/reply message will not be
delivered.
If Include a message header when forwarding/replying check box is not
selected, the subject of a forwarded message contains the CLID information but,
does not include the original sender’s name or the sent time.
