copying the Outlook Plug-in folder to a shared folder, customizing the Outlook security, and
distributing to the users an e-mail with the location of the shared folder and the name of the
6500 server name. To install the plug-in, the user must know their Personal Web Page login
ID and password.
Note: The Mitel Networks 6500 Multimedia Outlook Plug-in requires the users to have
Microsoft Outlook 2000 or Microsoft Outlook XP on their PC.The plug-in functions with
the following operating systems: Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT (with NT4
SP4 for greater), or Windows XP. Users must have a sound card and speakers. If they
want to record voice messages, they should have a microphone connected to their PC.
To distribute the Multimedia Outlook Plug-in
1. Insert the CD “6500 Unified Communications Disc 2" into a server with a shared folder.
2. Click Browse on the welcome page, and locate the Outlook Plugin folder. Copy the files
in the Outlook Plug-in folder into the shared folder.
3. Before your users install the 6500 Multimedia Outlook Plug-in, you must customize the
security settings on the Exchange Server for Microsoft Outlook, so Microsoft Outlook
accepts the plug-in software and does not give continuous security warnings. See the
procedure “To customize the Microsoft Outlook security” on page 45.
4. Notify the users (must be using Microsoft Outlook 2000 or Microsoft Outlook XP) via e-mail
that the plug-in is available at, and give them the address of the shared folder. Instruct
them to double-click on the setup.exe file in the shared folder to install the plug-in. Give
them also the name of the 6500 server. After the installation, the user must reboot their
computer to activate the software changes. Tell them to open Outlook, and go into Tools, Options, then Unified Messaging to set their personal preferences. The user requires
their Login ID and Password in order to program a link to their Personal Web Page.
Tip: The 6500 Multimedia Outlook Plug-in is not supported if the user launches 6500
Unified Messaging through Outlook Web Access (OWA). Mitel suggests that you install
the Microsoft Outlook Multimedia Extension for the users so they have access to a
playbar for their voice messages. For more information, see the Microsoft
documentation.
Tip: For a simple local installation (for your personal use, or for anyone that has access
to the 6500 Unified Communications Disk 2 CD), insert the Disk 2 into the server (the
6500 Unified Communications Setup window opens), click on the Multimedia Outlook
Plug-in button, and follow the instructions.
Note: Audio playback with the Multimedia Outlook Plug-in is dependant on a PC
connection to the Exchange Server. The system uses the telephone or the PC speakers
to play the voice messages. This choice is referred to as the Selectable Playback Device.
The idle timeout for the telephone (default 180 seconds) is set in the Admin Web Page
under System Properties. Timeout changes require the ACM to be stopped and restarted.

Integrating VPIM
The 6500 Unified Messaging system inter-operates with NuPoint Messenger in a VPIM (Voice
Profile for Internet Mail), networked voice mail environment.
NuPoint Messenger must have the following options installed:
•NuPoint Messenger software version 7.0 RSD 3 or greater
•Network card
•TCP/IP software
•VPIM
NuPoint Messenger Configuration
Refer to the NuPoint Messenger documentation regarding VPIM configuration.
Keep the following points in mind when configuring the NuPoint Messenger to integrate with
the 6500 server via VPIM:
Installing a New 6500 Unified Messaging System
•You must be able to ping by name the 6500 server from the NuPoint Messenger server.
•The 6500 server is the VPIM node, therefore use the fully qualified hostname of the 6500
server whenever a VPIM node hostname is required.
•Do not use prefixes for VPIM addresses arriving at the 6500 server. The 6500 user mailbox
numbers must not include any prefix when leaving the NuPoint Messenger server. Enter
"N" for no prefix when you are asked to "Select prefix to use [DNA]". This does not prevent
you from using a prefix within the NuPoint Messenger server to group 6500 users under
a particular Node Configuration and Digit Translation pair.
•The VPIM specification is for G.721 encoded audio. If you wish to use G .711 audio between
the 6500 server and the NuPoint Messenger server, then program the NuPoint Messenger
server as a "custom" node on the 6500 VPIM configuration screen and specify an
"Encoding Format" of G.711.
•In "SMTP Receive Configuration", a "VPIM Speech Quality" lower than 32 results in
noticeable audio degradation due to resampling artifacts. The default is 18, therefore by
default you will hear a buzz in the background for VPIM messages. A quality vs. space
savings tradeoff must be decided upon when adjusting this value.
50003280, Revision B 75
Installation and Maintenance Guide
6500 Unified Messaging Configuration
Tip: Configuring VPIM requi r es the VP IM Network in g licens e.
Note: All VPIM users (including NuPoint Messenger users) must be identified with a
VPIM address in the Active Directory Users and Computers window under the SR Settings
tab. VPIM networking inter-works with 6500 users that are listed in a company directory
on a 6500 Unified Messaging system. VPIM networking does not support the contacts
that are in a personal directory.

VB-200x cards. Perform the installwith the two cards and their serial numbers. If you
put a new or additional card in the server, open up the VoiceBridge user interface and

Note: Custom TTS pronunciations on systems with Release 3.6 UR1 or earlier are not
restored when performing an upgrade. To keep the custom pronunciations, copy the
userdict.txt file, rename it to NAE_userdict.txt for a North American system or
UKE_userdict.txt for a UK system, and after the restore overwrite the existing file. For
the changes to take effect, stop and start the appropriate TTS router; TTSRouterPRI if
the dictionary is for the primary language or TSSRouterSEC if the dictionary is for the
secondary language.
