Announcement Mailbox
Announcement Mailbox
Description
An Announcement Mailbox plays a pre-recorded announcement to Automated Attendant callers without
providing dialing options. The Announcement Mailbox is typically set up to provide information to callers
(such as company directions) and then route back to the Automated Attendant. For example:
■ The Automated Attendant instructs the caller to dial a digit (e.g., 1) for company directions.
- Record this in the Instruction Menu message for the active Call Routing Mailbox. See Instruction
Menu on page 65 for more.
- Set the dialing options in the Dial Action Table associated with the active Call Routing Mailbox.
See Dial Action Table on page 42 for more.
■ The caller dials the digit and listens to the prerecorded Announcement Mailbox message for directions.
■ After playing the directions, the caller routes back to the Automated Attendant for additional dialing
options.
- See the Hang Up and Next Call Routing Mailbox options in Programming below.
By default, there are 8 Announcement Mailboxes (Routing Mailboxes 008-015). However, you can assign
any of the 16 Routing Mailboxes as an Announcement Mailbox.

The Announcement Message is the voice message that the System Administrator records for a specific

Answer Schedule Override provides alternate answering for Automated Attendant calls. When enabled,
Answer Schedule Override sends calls to the specified Override Mailbox. The Override Mailbox can be an
Announcement, Call Routing, or Subscriber mailbox. You can use Answer Schedule Override to provide
holiday and bad weather closing announcements, for example. Enable override when you want callers to
hear the special announcements; disable override to have the Automated Attendant answer normally. You can
enable Answer Schedule Override from system programming or from the System Administrator Mailbox.
■ If the Override Mailbox is an Announcement Mailbox, the outside caller will hear the recorded
announcement. Depending on how the Announcement Mailbox is programmed, IntraMail will then hang
up, reroute the call, or provide additional dialing options.
■ If the Override Mailbox is a Call Routing Mailbox, the outside caller will hear the instruction menu and
can dial any options allowed by the associated Dial Action Table.
■ If the Override Mailbox is a Subscriber Mailbox, the outside caller hears the mailbox greeting (if
recorded) and can leave a message.

Answer Tables
Answer Tables
Description
The Answer Table determines how the Automated Attendant answers outside calls on each trunk, according
to the time of the day and day of the week that the call is ringing. IntraMail provides 8 Answer Tables. The
Answer Table is an integral part of the Automated Attendant. The Automated Attendant can automatically
answer the telephone system’s incoming calls, play an Instruction Menu message, and provide dialing
options to callers.There are 3 major Automated Attendant components:
■ Answer T ables
The Answer Table determines how the Automated Attendant answers outside calls on each trunk, according to the time of the day and day of the week that the call is ringing. The Answer Table divides the time
of day and day of the week into individual schedules, which in turn assign a Call Routing Mailbox to
each call. When a specific schedule is not in effect, the Answer Table uses its Default Mailbox to determine routing.
✔By default, all trunks use Answer Table 1. Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday
through Friday from 8:30AM to 5:00PM.
■ Call Routing Mailbox (page 30)
A Call Routing Mailbox is a mailbox associated with an individual Answer Table schedule or the Default
Mailbox. It specifies which dialing options (Dial Action Table) are available to callers. It also provides
the Instruction Menu to callers which typically greets the callers and describes the dialing options.
✔By default, Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to
5:00PM. This schedule and the Default Mailbox both use Call Routing Mailbox 000.
■ Dial Action T able (page 42)
Once the Automated Attendant answers, the Dial Action Table provides the dialing options to callers.
Each digit a caller can dial is assigned a specific action (function) in the Dial Action Table. The dial
action used depends on the setting in the active Call Routing Mailbox, which in turn depends on the
Answer T able setup.
The Default Mailbox provides routing for an Answer Table during periods when a schedule is not in effect.
By default, for example, Answer Table 1 Schedule 1 is active Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00
PM. The Default Mailbox for Answer Table 1 is active during all other times (i.e., evenings and weekends).
Since Schedule 1 and the Default Mailbox both use Call Routing Mailbox 000, initially the routing is the
same 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. See Customizing an Answer Table below for more.
When setting up your Answer Tables, keep in mind that a more specific type of routing has priority over a
less specific type of routing. When selecting which routing to follo w when there is more than one choice for
a specific time, IntraMail will choose in the following order:
■ Date Schedule

Customizing an Answer Table
Use the following examples as a guide when customizing your Answer Tables to meet specific site requirements.
Refer to Programming below for the specifics.
To set up daytime and evening/weekend answering (2 schedules):
In this example, use the Default Mailbox (Call Routing Mailbox 000) for evening/weekend answering and
specify a new Call Routing Mailbox for daytime answering.
1. Change the Call Routing Mailbox for Answer Table 1, Schedule 1.
■ In 8007 - IntraMail Answer Tables, assign Call Routing Mailbox 001 to Answer Table 1, Schedule 1.
You will use this for daytime answering.
2. From a System Administrator’s Mailbox, record an evening/weekend Instruction Menu message for Call
Routing mailbox 000.
■ This message will play to callers Monday through Friday from 5:00 PM to 8:30 AM and on weekends.
3. From a System Administrator’s Mailbox, record a daytime Instruction Menu message for Call Routing
Mailbox 001.
■ This message will play to callers Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM.
Answer Tables

To set up daytime, evening, and weekend answering (3 schedules):
This example builds on the example above, but adds a third schedule that will play just on weekday evenings.
1. Change the Call Routing Mailbox for Answer Table 1, Schedule 1.
■ In 8007 - IntraMail Answer Tables, assign Call Routing Mailbox 001 to Answer Table 1, Schedule 1.
As in the 2 schedule example, you will use this for daytime answering.
2. Create a new schedule that will run only in the evenings.
■ In 8007 - IntraMail Answer Tables, create Schedule 2 for Answer Table 1 that will run Monday
through Friday from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Assign Call Routing Mailbox 002 to this new schedule.
3. From a System Administrator’s Mailbox, record a late night/weekend Instruction Menu Message for Call
Routing mailbox 000.
■
This message will play Monday through Friday from 11:00 PM to 8:30 AM, as well as on weekends.
4. From a System Administrator’s mailbox, record the weekday Instruction Menu Message for Call Rout-
ing Mailbox 001.
■ This message will play Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM.
5. From a System Administrator’s Mailbox, record the weekday evening Instruction Menu Message for
Call Routing Mailbox 002.
■ This message will play Monday through Friday from 5:00 PM to 1:00 PM

A user’s ke yset can work lik e a home answering machine. This lets IntraMail screen their calls, just like their
answering machine at home. If activated, the extension’s incoming calls route to the user’s Subscriber Mailbox. Once the mailbox answers, the user hears two alert tones followed by the caller’s incoming message.
The keyset user can then:
■ Let the call go through to their mailbox, or
■ Intercept the call.

When a subscriber enables Auto Attendant Do Not Disturb, Automated Attendant calls to their extension go
directly to their mailbox. Their phone will not ring for calls from the Automated Attendant. You can optionally enable Auto Attendant Do Not Disturb from system programming. A subscriber typically turns on Auto
Attendant Do Not Disturb when they need to work uninterrupted at their desk by outside callers sent from
the Automated Attendant.
Keep in mind that Auto Attendant Do Not Disturb will not block Intercom calls from co-workers or any other
type of outside call not routed through the Automated Attendant. For example, with Automated Attendant Do
Not Disturb enabled, Direct Inwards Lines and transferred outside calls to an extension work normally.

Auto Time Stamp
Description
After a Subscriber Mailbox user listens to a message, IntraMail can optionally announce the time and date
the message was left. The Subscriber can enable Auto T ime Stamp from their mailbox, or you can optionally
enable in from system programming. Auto Time Stamp helps if the subscriber needs to know the time and
date of each message they receive without taking any extra steps. With Auto Time Stamp turned on, IntraMail automatically announces the date, time, and (optionally) the caller’s number at the end of each message.

The Automated Attendant answers outside calls on each trunk, according to the time of the day and day of
the week that the call is ringing. The Answer Table is an integral part of the Automated Attendant. The Automated Attendant can automatically answer the telephone system’s incoming calls, play an Instruction Menu
message, and provide dialing options to callers. There are 3 major Automated Attendant components:
■ Answer T ables (page 16)
The Answer Table determines how the Automated Attendant answers outside calls on each trunk, according to the time of the day and day of the week that the call is ringing. The Answer Table divides the time
of day and day of the week into individual schedules, which in turn assign a Call Routing Mailbox to
each call. When a specific schedule is not in effect, the Answer Table uses its Default Mailbox to determine routing.
✔By default, all trunks use Answer Table 1. Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday
through Friday from 8:30AM to 5:00PM.
■ Call Routing Mailbox (page 30)
A Call Routing Mailbox is a mailbox associated with an individual Answer Table schedule or the Default
Mailbox. It specifies which dialing options (Dial Action Table) are available to callers. It also provides
the Instruction Menu to callers which typically greets the callers and describes the dialing options.
✔By default, Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to
5:00PM. This schedule and the Default Mailbox both use Call Routing Mailbox 000.
■ Dial Action T able (page 42)
Once the Automated Attendant answers, the Dial Action Table provides the dialing options to callers.
Each digit a caller can dial is assigned a specific action (function) in the Dial Action Table. The dial
action used depends on the setting in the active Call Routing Mailbox, which in turn depends on the
Answer T able setup.
An extension user can transfer their trunk call to the Automated Attendant so the outside caller can use the
Automated Attendant dialing options. This helps an outside caller, for example, that wants to return to the
Automated Attendant so they can dial another co-worker or use a different Automated Attendant option.
Note: Extensions cannot call or be transferred to the IntraMail Automated Attendant.
Operation
Automated Attendant Transfer
To transfer an outside call to the Automated Attendant:
1.
While on an outside call, press ICM.
2. Dial the voice mail master number (e.g., 700).
3. Hang up.

Automatic Routing for Rotary Dial Callers
Automatic Routing for Rotary Dial Callers
Description
If an Automated Attendant caller doesn’t dial any digits, IntraMail will automatically route them to a specified option (such as the operator or a mailbox). This lets rotary telephone users stay on the line to leave a
message or have their call processed. Without Automatic Routing for Rotary Dial Callers, rotary callers
would not be able to use the Automated Attendant.
A subscriber can easily forward calls to their Subscriber Mailbox. Instead of dialing an extension as the forwarding destination, the user just presses their MW key instead. With Call Forward to a Mailbox, the subscriber
is assured that their calls don’t get forgotten when the y are b usy or unav ailable to pick up their calls. Unlik e with
Extension Hunting to Voice Mail, forwarding lets the subscriber choose when and how they want their unanswered calls to go to voice mail (rather than have the telephone system reroute their calls automatically).

Call Screening allows a display keyset extension user to listen to (screen) a voice mail message as it is being
left in their mailbox. Call Screening emulates a standard home answering machine — in addition to providing more control when handling incoming messages. Similar to Personal Answering Machine Emulation, the
extension user can listen as the message is being left, intercept the call, or end the screen and have the message recorded privately. Unlike Personal Answering Machine emulation, Call Screening does not require the
extension user to forward their calls immediately to voice mail. The telephone display automatically shows
the Call Screening soft key options as soon as the recording begins.
When enabled, Call Screening will broadcast the caller’s message as soon as the mailbox Greeting completes. Additionally, if the extension user intercepts (answers) the screened call, the first portion of the message is automatically erased from the extension’s mailbox.
Any caller that can leave a message can have their call screened by the extension user.
Call Screening and Group Mailboxes
If extensions share a Group Mailbox, any number of extensions in the group can screen an incoming message.
The group extensions can monitor the incoming message simultaneously. If any group member answers the
call (i.e., intercepts the incoming message), the remaining group members are immediately disconnected.
Automatic Call Screening
With Automatic Call Screening enabled, an extension will immediately screen (broadcast) an incoming message as soon as the caller starts to leave it in the extension’s mailbox. The extension user hears two beeps followed by the caller’s voice.
MW LED Operation Change
With the introduction of Call Screening, only the Ring/Message Lamp flashes for new messages. The MW
LED is used for Call Screening only.
Note that if more than one caller is leaving a message in a mailbox simultaneously , Call Screening will listen
to the first message.

Caller ID
Description
Operation
Caller ID is a telephone company service that provides an extension with a caller’s number and optional
name. With Caller ID, the display keyset user knows who’s calling before they pick up the call. Caller ID
Logging stores a record of the call on the user’s telephone which the y can re vie w and use to easily return the
call. When used with IntraMail, Caller ID enables the Make Call feature for outside calls. After listening to a
voice message, the subscriber can dial MC to return the call without knowing the callers phone number.

Calling the Automated Attendant
Calling the Automated Attendant
Description
Automated Attendant callers can use various IntraMail features and then return to the Automated Attendant
for additional dialing options. This lets the caller dial other extensions, leave messages for co-workers, or
use other Automated Attendant features. The features below describe several ways to return to the Automated Attendant.
■ Automated Attendant T ransfer (page 27)
An extension user can transfer their trunk call to the Automated Attendant so the outside caller can use
the Automated Attendant dialing options.
■ Next Call Routing Mailbox (page 96)
The Next Call Routing Mailbox provides callers with additional dialing options after they leave a message in a mailbox (depending on the setting of the Dialing Option).
Operation
Refer to the features referenced in Description above.
Centrex T ransfer is a Dial Action Table option that can transfer an Automated Attendant call from a Centre x
trunk to an outside number using the features of that Centrex trunk. With Centrex Transfer, the Automated
Attendant answers an outside call and then transfers the caller back to the telco using the same trunk on
which the call initially rang. To set this up, assign a Dial Action Table action as a UTRF to a System Speed
Dial bin (e.g., #200P). The bin should contain the complete dial string (preceded by a Flash command)
required to initiate the Centrex Transfer. When the Automated Attendant answers, the caller dials the digit
and IntraMail automatically routes them to the outside number.
Centrex Transfer is only available if the telephone system connects to Centrex trunks that provide the features required to complete the transfer. Similar to External Transfer, Centrex Transfer allows your callers to
easily reach branch offices and important off-site associates. Unlike External Transfer, Centrex Transfer
requires unique telco features.
Operation
Operation is automatic once set up in programming.

Conversation Record
Conversation Record
Description
Conversation Record allo ws a subscriber to record their acti v e call as a ne w message in their mailbox, which
they can review later on. Conversation Record can be helpful when an extension user is on a call that
involves a lot of detail (such as a technical discussion or extensive directions). Rather than taking notes as
the call progresses, the user can record the conversation and carefully re vie w it later on. IntraMail broadcasts
a beep and a voice prompt to the callers as Conversation Record begins. After calling their mailbox, the subscriber can save, edit, or delete the recorded conversation.
The use of monitoring, recording, or listening devices to eavesdrop, monitor, retrieve, or record
telephone conversations or other sound activities, whether or not contemporaneous with transmission, may be illegal in certain circumstances under federal or state laws. Legal advice should
be sought prior to implementing any practice that monitors or records any telephone conversation. Some federal and state laws require some form of notification to all parties to a telephone
conversation, such as using a beep tone or other notification methods or requiring the consent of
all parties to the telephone conversation, prior to monitoring or recording the telephone conversation. Some of these laws incorporate strict penalties.
Caution
Conversation Record Key for a Co-worker’s Mailbox
While on a call, you can press the key to record your conversation directly into your co-worker’s mailbox.
You can set up the key to record into any valid Subscriber Mailbox (including Group Mailboxes and Master
Mailboxes programmed as Subscriber Mailboxes). This could help a dispatcher, for example, that wants to
record a conversation with a client right into the responsible technician’s mailbox.
Your extension can have multiple Conversation Record keys, each associated with a different mailbox.
Setting up a Record key for a co-worker’s mailbox is also available on DSS Consoles.
Only one party on a call can use Conversation Record at any one time. This includes Intercom calls and
Conference calls.
1. Press your Voice Mail Record key or RECORD soft key.
■ The key lights green while the system calls your mailbox. Once recording begins, the key flashes. You and
your caller hear the voice prompt “Recording.” Your display shows one of the following:
- Prior to 03.20.07: CONFERENCE
- 03.20.07 or higher: RECORDING MAILBOX XXX (where XXX is the number of the mailbox into which
the conversation is recording)
■
■ You can also have a Record key on your DSS Console. It lights red while the system calls your mailbox and
flashes fast once recording begins.
To turn conversation record off:
1. Press MW.
■ Recording stops.
■ There are no options available while recording (such as pause, resume, and exit).

Directory Dialing
Directory Dialing
Description
Directory Dialing allows an Automated Attendant caller to reach an extension by dialing the first few letters
in the extension user’s name. With Directory Dialing, the caller does not have to remember the extension
number of the person they wish to reach — just their name. Here’s how Directory Dialing works:
1. When the Automated Attendant answers, it sends the call to a Directory Dialing Mailbox. (Optionally,
the caller may be asked to dial a digit to access Directory Dialing.)
2. The Directory Dialing Mailbox plays the Directory Dialing Message (recorded by the System Adminis-
trator) which asks the caller to dial letters for the name of the person they wish to reach.
3. The caller dials the letters for the person’s name plus #. The y can dial by first name or last name, depend-
ing on how the Directory Dialing Message was recorded and the Directory Dialing Mailbox was set up.
4. IntraMail searches the list of programmed extension names for a match of the caller-entered letters.
5. Voice prompts announce the first three matches, and allow the caller to dial a digit (1-3) to reach one of
the announced matches. Additionally, the caller can dial 4 to hear additional matches (if any).
6. The caller dials the digit for the extension they wish to reach, and IntraMail sends the call to that exten-
sion. The call is sent as a Screened or Unscreened transfer, depending on programming.
For callers to use Directory Dialing, the system must have a name programmed for each extension (up to 15
characters, A-Z, using upper and lower case letters). Each extension should also have a name recorded in
their Subscriber Mailbox. In addition, each extension used by Directory Dialing must be installed and must
have their Subscriber Mailbox active (Personal or Group).
The Directory Dialing Mailbox can be a Routing Mailbox assigned as a Directory Dialing Mailbox or a
Master Mailbox assigned as a Directory Dialing Mailbox.
L (5)Listen to the current Directory Dialing Message (if any).

Directory Dialing Mailbox
Directory Dialing Mailbox
Description
A Directory Dialing Mailbox is the type of mailbox required to implement Directory Dialing. A Directory
Dialing Mailbox can be either a Routing Mailbox or a Master Mailbox. The type you choose depends only
on available resources and your programming preference, since they w ork identically. See Directory Dialing
on page 44 for more on how to set up a Directory Dialing Mailbox.
Operation
Turn to Directory Dialing on page 44 for more on how to use Directory Dialing and record a Directory Dial-
ing Message.
The System Administrator can delete all messages in a Subscriber Mailbox. Erasing All Messages is an
administrator’s maintenance tool. The administrator may need to use this tool if an employee has left the
company or has an excessive number of messages stored in their mailbox. By deleting the unwanted messages, the administrator can prevent the IntraMail recording capacity from being reached (which would disable many of the IntraMail messaging features).
Enter the number of the Subscriber Mailbox you want to maintain.

Exiting a Mailbox
Exiting a Mailbox
Description
A Subscriber Mailbox user can exit their mailbox by dialing a code or by hanging up. After exiting, the subscriber can use their extension for normal call processing.
Extension Hunting to Voice Mail automatically sends calls to an extension’s mailbox without the user having
to set up Call Forwarding. For example, Extension Hunting to Voice Mail can send unanswered transferred
calls to an extension’ s mailbox rather than recalling the transferring party. In addition, Extension Hunting to
Voice Mail can send an unanswered Direct Inward Line to the extension’s mailbox instead of diverting to
Key Ring. Hunting can also reroute calls from the Automated Attendant as well as ringing Intercom calls
(depending on the hunt type). Unlike Call Forwarding, Extension Hunting to Voice Mail requires no action
by the extension user to redirect calls; the system reroutes them automatically.
There are 4 types of Extension Hunting to Voice Mail:
■ Ring No Answer Trunk (Type 1)
Type 1 hunting reroutes trunk calls to the extension’s mailbox after a preset interval. Type 1 hunting
reroutes trunk calls when the extension is idle, busy, or in Do Not Disturb but does not reroute ringing
Intercom calls. See the Routing Charts below for more.
■ Ring No Answer / Busy Trunk (Type 2)
Type 2 hunting also reroutes trunk calls to the extension user’s mailbox. When the e xtension is idle, Type 2
hunting reroutes calls after an interval. Type 2 hunting reroutes trunk calls immediately while the extension
is busy or in Do Not Disturb. Like Type 1 hunting, Type 2 hunting does not reroute ringing Intercom calls.
See the Routing Charts below for more.
■ Ring No Answer / Busy All (Type 3)
Type 3 hunting reroutes trunk calls and ringing Intercom calls. If the extension is idle, calls reroute to the
user’s mailbox after an interv al. Type 3 hunting reroutes calls immediately when the extension is busy or
in Do Not Disturb. See the Routing Charts below for more.
■ Busy Trunk (Type 4)
Type 4 hunting is similar to Type 2 hunting e xcept that transferred trunk calls to an idle e xtension do not
reroute. Transferred trunk calls, Direct Inward Lines, and calls from the Automated Attendant go immediately to the mailbox when the extension is busy or in Do Not Disturb. This type of hunting never
reroutes ringing Intercom calls. See the Routing Charts below for more.
Notes:
■ Extension Hunting to Voice Mail does not reroute voice-announced Intercom calls.
■ Extension Hunting to Voice Mail does not reroute Key Ring calls. See the DS1000/2000 Software Man-
ual for more on Key Ring.

External Transfer
External Transfer
Description
External Transfer allows an Automated Attendant caller to automatically route to an outside telephone
number. To set this up, assign a Dial Action Table action as a UTRF to a System Speed Dial bin (e.g.,
#200 + Pause for system bin 200). When the Automated Attendant answers, the caller dials the digit and
IntraMail automatically routes them to the outside number contained in the bin. Similar to Centrex
Transfer, External Transfer allows your callers to easily reach branch offices and important off-site associates. Unlike Centrex Transfer, External Transfer does not require unique telco features.
Operation
Operation is automatic once set up in programming.
The Automated Attendant can detect incoming fax calls and transfer them to a fax machine. W ith F ax Detection enabled, after the Automated Attendant answers a call it listens for incoming fax CNG tone. If it detects
the tone, it does an unscreened transfer of the call to the specified company fax machine. The incoming fax
then prints out on the company fax machine. If you disable Fax Detection, the Automated Attendant will not
detect and route incoming fax calls.

Flexible Answering Schedules
Flexible Answering Schedules
Description
The Automated Attendant can answer outside calls with different announcements and dialing options,
depending on the time of day and day of week. For example, a company can set up separate schedules for
weekdays, evenings, weekends, and specific holidays. Each schedule can play a different announcement to
callers, as well as provide them with unique dialing options. Once set up in programming, the schedule operation is automatic.
The Flexible Answering Schedules are determined by the set up of the IntraMail Answer Tables. See Answer Tables on page 16 for more.
The Automated Attendant can provide outside callers with a wide variety of dialing (routing) options. You
can customize the announcements and routing options to exactly meet the site requirements. Use Flexible
Call Routing to eliminate or minimize the need for an operator or receptionist to handle outside calls.
There are 3 components to Flexible Call Routing.
■ Answer T ables (page 16)

Flexible Mailbox Numbering Plan
Flexible Mailbox Numbering Plan
Description
If the telephone system extension numbers are changed or swapped, IntraMail will automatically change the
Subscriber Mailbox numbers to match. There is no extensiv e reprogramming required. After the swap, all of
the subscriber’s messages and options are available at their new extension number. Flexible Mailbox Numbering Plan lets you customize a site’s extension numbers and be assured that IntraMail will automatically
adapt to the new configuration.
Two-digit extension/mailbox numbering is not supported in IntraMail.
A Subscriber Mailbox can optionally convert Automated Attendant Screened Transfers to Unscreened
Transfers. Enable this option for a mailbox if the subscriber prefers to receiv e all calls sent by the Automated
Attendant as Unscreened Transfers. With Unscreened Transfers,
■ Calls from the Automated Attendant ring like other transferred calls and display the incoming Caller ID
data (if provided by telco and enabled in programming) as the call is ringing.
■ As with Screened Transfers, unanswered calls route to the subscriber’s greeting (recorded or default) so
the caller can leave a message. However, with Unscreened Transfer the caller cannot dial 2 to reach the
Next Call Routing Mailbox options (if programmed).

■ Recorded help is always available from the Main Menu.
■ Recorded help may not be available at all levels.
An Automated Attendant caller can dial a digit to route to a Call Routing or Announcement Mailbox. This is
called the Go To (GOTO) action. The GOTO action can route directly to a specific Call Routing or
Announcement Mailbox, or allow the Automated Attendant caller to go to a mailbox of their own choosing.
Use the GOTO action to set up a “tree” of Automated Attendant options.
The block diagram below shows ho w the Automated Attendant can provide the caller with a “tree” of dialing
options. Dialing 1 (GOTO 008) routes to Announcement Mailbox 008, which plays the company directions.
Dialing 2 (GOTO 001) routes to Call Routing Mailbox 001, which is set up to give the caller single-digit
dialing to Tech Service technicians.
■ The Announcement Message for Announcement Mailbox 008 tells the caller how to locate the company.
■ The Instruction Menu for Call Routing Mailbox 001 instructs the caller which digits to dial for each tech-
nician. The Dial Action Table for Call Routing Mailbox 001 contains the TRF or UTRF actions to each
technician’s extension.

The GOTO action can also log into a Subscriber Mailbox, although the LOGON action is normally reserv ed
for this function.

Greeting
Greeting
Description
Remote Greetings
A Subscriber Mailbox user can record a personalized greeting for their mailbox. Caller’s to the user’s mailbox hear the prerecorded personalized greeting rather than a default message. The greeting can announce the
subscriber’s name, pro vide a personal message (such as “Hello - I am on vacation this week”), or instruct the
caller how to leave a message or use other mailbox options. A greeting that provides mailbox instructions is
very helpful if the mailbox has a Next Call Routing Mailbox set up that provides additional dialing options.
Without the greeting, the caller would not know which digits to dial.
While listening to a mailbox greeting, a caller can dial * to immediately leave a message.
A Subscriber Mailbox user can call into the Automated Attendant, access their mailbox, and remotely record
their mailbox greeting. Following are two of the ways a user can do this:
■ After the Automated Attendant answers, dial a digit (typically #) followed by their mailbox number. This
method allows outside callers to log into their Subscriber Mailboxes from outside the company. Once
they log into their mailbox, the user can dial G to record a greeting.
■ If an extension has a Direct Inward Line that is forwarded to voice mail, the caller can dial # and log into
their mailbox (instead of leaving a message). Once they log into their mailbox, the user can dial G to
record a greeting. This option must be set up in the Next Call Routing Mailbox. To allow this capability,
for example:
- Program the Next Call Routing Mailbox # digit as LOGON to IXXX.
- While listening to their greeting, the subscriber can dial:
# (to route to their Next Call Routing Mailbox), then
# and their mailbox number to log onto their mailbox.
- By default, this option is provided in Call Routing Mailbox 000. Additionally, the subscriber should
enable a Security Code for their mailbox to prevent unauthorized logons.
Multiple Greetings
In systems with Multiple Greetings, the mailbox subscriber can record up to three separate greetings and
make any one of the three active. When a caller leaves a message in the subscriber’s mailbox, they hear the
active greeting. This allows the subscriber, for example, to record separate greetings for work hours, after
work, and during vacation. Instead of rerecording their greeting when they leave the office, they can just
activate the “after work” greeting instead.
If the active greeting has not been recorded, a caller leaving a message in the subscriber mailbox will hear,
“At the tone, you can leave your message for (extension number or name).”

Group Mailbox
Group Mailbox
Description
A Group Mailbox is a Subscriber Mailbox shared by a group of co-workers. If a caller leaves a message at
any extension within the group, the system stores the message in the Group Mailbox. The Ring/Message
lamp at all keyset extensions in the group flashes to indicate that there is a ne w voice mail message waiting.
Any extension user in the group can log onto their mailbox to hear and process the shared message. The
message count on all keyset displays increments and decrements as group messages are received, listened to,
or deleted.
Group Mailboxes are helpful in both residential installations and larger business workgroups, since extensions share a common voice mailbox. Messages in the Group Mailbox can be listened to, forwarded, deleted,
and otherwise processed by any member of the group.
Group Mailbox uses Ring Group and Master Mailbox programming. You can separately set up Ring Group
members to have the same Group Mailbox. Since the system provides 8 Ring Groups, there are a total of 8
Group Mailboxes available.
Understanding Group Mailbox Types
If the Group (Master) Mailbox is a Call Routing Mailbox (1):
■ A co-worker attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears: “Your
call cannot go through. Goodbye.” IntraMail then hangs up.
■ An outside caller attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears the
prerecorded Instruction Menu message and can dial options allowed by the associated Dial Action Table.
■ If the Group Mailbox user presses MW, they are asked to enter their mailbox number. After entering the
number, they hear, “That mailbox does not exist.”
■ An Automated Attendant caller attempting to leave a Quick Message or do a Remote Logon at an exten-
sion assigned to the Group mailbox hears, “That mailbox does not exist.” They then return to the Auto-
mated Attendant.
If the Group (Master) Mailbox is an Announcement Mailbox (2):
■ A co-worker attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears: “Your
call cannot go through. Goodbye.” IntraMail then hangs up.
■ An outside caller attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears the
prerecorded announcement and can use all other Announcement Mailbox features.
■ If the Group Mailbox user presses MW, they are asked to enter their mailbox number. After entering the
number, they hear: “That mailbox does not exist.”
■ An Automated Attendant caller attempting to leave a Quick Message or do a Remote Logon at an exten-
sion assigned to the Group mailbox hears, “That mailbox does not exist.” They then return to the Auto-
mated Attendant.
If the Group (Master) Mailbox is a Subscriber Mailbox (3):
■ The Group Mailbox has all the features of any other personal Subscriber Mailbox.
If the Group (Master) Mailbox is a Directory Dialing Mailbox (4):
■ A co-worker attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears: “Your
call cannot go through. Goodbye.” IntraMail then hangs up.
■
An outside caller attempting to leave a message at an extension assigned to the Group Mailbox hears the
Directory Dialing message and can use any of the options programmed for the Directory Dialing Mailbox.

Guest Mailbox
Guest Mailbox
Description
An outside party can have their own Guest Mailbox mailbox for receiving and sending messages. A Guest
Mailbox is a Subscriber Mailbox that does not have an extension associated with it. A Guest Mailbox can
also be a Master Mailbox assigned as a Subscriber Mailbox. A Guest Mailbox has man y of the IntraMail features of a Subscriber Mailbox. A company visitor with a Guest Mailbox could, for example:
■ Go to any extension, press ICM + 700, then dial their mailbox number.
■ Review their messages, leave messages for associates, or record a new greeting for their mailbox.
■ Use many other features available to a Subscriber Mailbox.
For a brief overview of the features available at a Guest Mailbox, review the Related Features below. Then,
go to the individual feature to find out how it operates and any programming required to make it work.
Enhanced Guest Mailbox
With Enhanced Guest Mailbox, you can set up a Guest Mailbox just by activating the Subscriber Mailbox at
any uninstalled extension. In 1808-Mailbox Type, set up the mailbox as Personal (1) or Group (2). When
you do this:
■ A Screened Transfer (TRF) or Unscreened T ransfer (UTRF) from the Automated Attendant goes directly
to the Subscriber Mailbox, even though there is no extension installed.
■ An Intercom call to the uninstalled extension goes directly to the Subscriber Mailbox.
■ A transferred call to the uninstalled extension also goes directly to the Subscriber Mailbox.
Operation
Logging Onto a Guest Mailbox
To log onto a Guest Mailbox:
1.
Press ICM + Dial the IntraMail master number (e.g., 700).
■ You can optionally press a Call Coverage key assigned to the IntraMail master number.
2. When IntraMail answers, dial the Guest Mailbox number.

Hang Up
Hang Up
Description
Operation
Hang Up is an Automated Attendant option that immediately hangs up the outside call. When setting up a
Dial Action Table, you may want to use Hang Up for unused actions (rather than the caller hearing the standard error message). You might also want to use the Hang Up action as the Timeout destination for callers
that wait too long to dial after the Automated Attendant answers.
The Instruction Menu is the announcement that plays to Automated Attendant callers. Normally, the Instruction Menu greets callers and provides them with the Automated Attendant dialing options. The Instruction
Menu is associated with the active Call Routing Mailbox. Normally, you should have the System Administrator customize (rerecord) the Instruction Menu to match the dialing options enabled in the site’s Dial
Action Table. If a custom Instruction Menu is not recorded, the Automated Attendant callers hear:
“If you are calling from a touch tone phone, please dial the extension number you wish to reach, or dial
0 for assistance. If you are calling from a rotary dial phone, please stay on the line for assistance.”

Log Onto Voice Mail
Log Onto Voice Mail
Description
A subscriber can log onto their mailbox using a method that best suits their needs and location. While at
their own phone, the subscriber just presses a single key to log onto their mailbox. To use their mailbox
while at a co-worker’s phone, the subscriber dials the IntraMail master number, followed by their mailbox
number (which is normally the same as their extension number). If they are away from the office, the sub-
scriber can still use their mailbox by calling in through the Automated Attendant.
Local (On-site) Logon
An extension user can log onto their mailbox in the following ways:
■ Press their MW key to log onto their Subscriber Mailbox.
■ Dial the IntraMail master number (e.g., 700), followed by their mailbox number . This method is typically
used by Guest Mailbox users, as well as subscribers attempting to log into their Subscriber Mailbox from
a co-worker’s phone.
Remote Log On
A Subscriber Mailbox user can call into the Automated Attendant and log onto their mailbox. Following are
two of the ways a user can do this:
■ After the Automated Attendant answers, dial a digit (typically #) followed by their mailbox number. This
method allows outside callers to log into their mailboxes from outside the company. Once they log into
their mailbox, they can use the allowed features in the mailbox main menu. To avoid unauthorized
access to their mailbox, the user should enable their own unique Security Code.
■ If an extension has a Direct Inward Line that voice mail picks up, the caller can dial # during their greet-
ing to log into their mailbox (instead of leaving a message). This method allows subscribers to dial their
own number and then use the features of their mailbox. This capability must be set up in the user’s Next
Call Routing Mailbox. For example:
- Program the Next Call Routing Mailbox # digit as LOGON to IXXX.
- While listening to their greeting, the subscriber can dial:
# (to route to their Next Call Routing Mailbox), then
# and their mailbox number to log onto their mailbox.
By default, this option is provided in Call Routing Mailbox 000. Additionally, the subscriber should
enable a Security Code for their mailbox to prevent unauthorized logons.
■ From an on-premise single line telephone, lift handset and dial *8.
To log onto your Guest Mailbox or your Subscriber Mailbox from a co-worker’s extension:
1.
Press ICM + Dial the IntraMail master number (e.g., 700) + Dial your mailbox number.
■ You can optionally press a Call Coverage key assigned to the IntraMail master number.
To log onto your Subscriber Mailbox from the Automated Attendant:
1.
Wait for the Automated Attendant to answer.
2. Dial # and your mailbox number.
■ This option may be different in your system. Check with your Communications Manager.
■
After you remotely log onto your mailbox, you can optionally dial 9 then * to return to the Automated Attendant.

Mailbox Options Menu
Mailbox Options Menu
Description
The Mailbox Options Menu is a sub-menu of a subscriber’s Main Menu that provides access to the Auto
Time Stamp, Mailbox Security Code Delete, and Message Notification features. The chart below summarizes these options. Auto Time Stamp helps if the subscriber needs to know the time and date of each message they receive without taking an y extra steps. If mailbox security is not an issue, the subscriber can delete
their security code to simplify logging onto their mailbox.
The System Administrator can delete the security code for any Subscriber Mailbox. This effectively unlocks
the mailbox. If mailbox security is not necessary, deleting a mailbox’s security code speeds up mailbox logon.
Without a security code, the subscriber just presses their MW key to immediately log onto their mailbox.

Make Call
Make Call
Description
Make Call lets a Subscriber Mailbox user listen to a voice message and dial MC to return the call without
knowing their caller’s phone number. Make Call automates returning messages since you don’t have to dial
the message sender’s telephone number. Make Call is always available for messages received from co-workers. Make call is available for messages received from outside callers if the system has Caller ID enabled
(and provided by the connected telco).
While listening to a message at a Super Display Telephone, first 2 lines of the display show the callers number (or extension) in addition to the date and time the message was left. At a 22-Button or 34-Button Telephone, the first line of the display shows the date and time the message was left.
Operation
Log onto Subscriber Mailbox.
L (5)Listen to the message for which you want to make a return call.

■ Make Call automatically places a return call to the co-worker that left you the message.
■ If your system has Caller ID, Make Call can automatically place a return call to your
outside caller.
■ If you hear “Your call cannot go through,” your system’s Caller ID is not properly set
up. You go right back to the listen mode for the message you were listening to when
you tried the Make Call.
■ While listening to a message at a 22-Button or 34-Button Display Telephone, press
CHECK and CLEAR to switch between the date/time and Caller ID information for the
Master Mailboxes are 16 additional mailboxes that you can assign as Announcement, Call Routing, Subscriber, or Directory Dialing Mailboxes. Use Master Mailboxes when setting up Group Ring Automated
Attendant Recall and UCD Hunting Group Overflow to Voice Mail. You can also use Master Mailboxes
assigned as Subscriber Mailboxes for Guest Mailboxes, which are Subscriber Mailboxes without associated
extensions. Since Master Mailboxes are a separate set of mailboxes, you don’t have to worry about undefining or redefining Subscriber Mailboxes when setting up these unique features. Y ou can also use Master Mailboxes for Directory Dialing.
When setting up Group Ring Automated Attendant Recall and UCD Hunting Group Overflow, the Master
Mailbox type you choose depends on how you want IntraMail to handle the overflow:
Operation
Refer to the following:
1
■ If you want recall/overflow to provide routing for callers, make the associated Master Mailbox a Call
Routing Mailbox.
■ If you want recall/overflow to provide an announcement to callers, make the associated Master Mail-
box an Announcement Mailbox.
■ If you want recall/overflow to collect messages like any other extension’s mailbox, make the associ-
ated Master Mailbox a Subscriber Mailbox.
■ If you want recall/overflow to provide dial-by-name, make the associated Master Mailbox a Directory
Dialing Mailbox.
! Important !
■ Group Ring Automated Attendant Recall to a master mailbox only occurs for Automated Attendant
Unscreened Transfers routed to the Ring Group master number. For other types of Group Ring recall,
turn to Voice Mail Overflow on page 118.
■ Announcement Mailbox (page 12).
■ Call Routing Mailbox (page 30).
■ Directory Dialing (page 44).

Message Count Display
Message Count Display
Description
The telephone display provides interactive status updates for the subscriber’s mailbox. The subscriber
doesn’t have to call their mailbox and wait for the voice prompts to find out the number of new and saved
messages in their mailbox. Then can just look at the display instead. While idle, the telephone display shows
the number of new messages waiting in a subscriber’s mailbox. The message count automatically updates as
the subscriber receives new messages and processes older messages. While logged into the mailbox, the tele-
phone display shows the number of both new and saved messages.

Message Delete
Message Delete
Description
A Subscriber Mailbox user can delete any messages left in their mailbox. Message Delete lets the subscriber
do their own mailbox maintenance. They can delete messages they no longer need and save messages that
contain essential information. With Message Delete, the subscriber doesn’t have to rely on the System
Administrator to perform these routine mailbox maintenance functions.
Operation

A Subscriber Mailbox user can forward a message in their mailbox to a co-worker. Forwarding is helpful
when a subscriber receives a message with which a co-worker can assist them. Rather than sending a new
message, the subscriber can just forward the message with which they need help. They can also optionally
record a comment before the forwarded message. Typically, the comment would describe the reason for the
message forwarding.
IntraMail erases the message in the subscriber’s mailbox after they forward it. The Message Forward destination receives the forwarded message as a new message.

Message Length
Message Length
Description
You can set the maximum length of a message that can be left in a Subscriber Mailbox. When a caller tries to
leave a message that exceeds the limit, they hear, “You have reached the recording limit.” IntraMail sends the
portion of the message that fits within the allowed Message Length and hangs up. The Message Length
option helps you maximize the storage space reserved for messages. If you find that callers are leaving
unusually long messages, shorten the Message Length. IntraMail will cut off the message once the caller
reaches the Message Length limit. On the other hand, if you hear that IntraMail is cutting off caller’s messages prematurely, increase the Message Length to give callers more time.
After logging onto their mailbox, the subscriber can select the category of messages to which they want to
listen. Then can listen to just new messages, just sav ed messages, or all messages. Message Listen Mode lets
the subscriber customize their mailbox to initially play just the list of messages to which they want to listen.
For example, if a subscriber has many saved messages and just a few new messages, then can log onto their
mailbox and dial 1N to select the new message list. When the y press L, they will then c ycle through just their
new message.
Initially, a Subscriber Mailbox uses the All Message List. If they select a different message list, IntraMail
reinstates the all Message List the next time they log onto their mailbox.

Message Notification
Message Notification
Description
Once activated by the Subscriber Mailbox user, Message Notification dials a telephone number to let the
user know when there are new messages in their mailbox. With Message Notification, a subscriber who is
out of the office does not have keep calling their mailbox remotely to find out if they have new messages.
IntraMail will let them know automatically. Notification can call extensions, local numbers, long distance
numbers and digital pagers. When a Subscriber Mailbox user sets up Message Notification, they choose
from the following options:
■ If Message Notification is enabled or disabled.
(Message Notification can only occur if it is enabled.)
■ The time of day Message Notification should begin and end.
(Callouts will only occur between the begin and end times.)
■ The type of device to which Message Notification will be calling.
(Message Notification can call a normal telephone number or a digital pager.)
■ The telephone or pager service phone number.
Note: To protect your mailbox from unauthorized access, be sure to record a security code for your mailbox
before enabling Message Notification.
How Message Notification Works to Normal Telephone Numbers
1. The subscriber activates Message Notification for their mailbox (see Operation below).
2. When the subscriber receives a new message, IntraMail immediately dials the destination that should
receive the Message Notification.
- IntraMail waits up to 30 seconds for ringback, reorder, busy or voice activity from the called number. If nothing is detected, the callout is considered unanswered.
3. If the recipient answers, IntraMail plays the notification message (“Hello, I have a message for”) and
asks the recipient to dial 1 to log onto their mailbox. The recipient hears the notification message if:
■ They say “Hello” after answering the callout, or
■ The system receives answer supervision from the telco after the recipient answers the call.
(Note that the recipient can skip the announcement by dialing 1 to log onto their mailbox after answering the callout – without saying “Hello”.)
■ The notification is to a system extension.
4. Once the recipient logs onto the mailbox, the notification is considered acknowledged and will not reoc-
cur until the subscriber receives new messages.
5. If the recipient doesn’t answer, the system will retry the callout number. After completing the pro-
grammed number of callout attempts, Message Notification will stop.
6. Once the notification process begins, a new message does not restart the process if it is already in
progress. Once the process ends (e.g., if the message is acknowledged or the maximum number of callout attempts is reached), the next new message will restart the process.
How Message Notification Works to Digital Pager Numbers
1. The subscriber activates Message Notification for their mailbox (see Operation below).
2. When subscriber receives a new message, IntraMail immediately dials the pager service.
- IntraMail waits up to 30 seconds for ringback, reorder, busy or voice activity from the called number. If nothing is detected, the callout is considered unanswered.
3. After the pager service answers, IntraMail sends a dial string which causes the pager display to show the
subscriber’s mailbox number as well as the number of new messages in the mailbox.
■ The notification is considered acknowledged if the recipient logs onto the mailbox. Notification will
not reoccur until the subscriber receives new messages.
■ If the pager service doesn’t answer, IntraMail will retry the callout number. Message Notification may
eventually cancel if the callout remains unacknowledged.
Message On Hold allows the System Administrator to record a message that will play to callers while they
wait on Hold. For example, you can record a message summarizing available services or hours of operation.
This message will play to callers as soon as you put them on Hold, and continually repeat as long as they
remain on Hold. Message On Hold recording is only av ailable from the System Administrator’s Mailbox. IntraMail provides a single Message On Hold. Any number of callers can simultaneously listen to the Message
On Hold recording.

Message Playback Direction
Message Playback Direction
Description
When a user dials L (5) after logging into their mailbox, IntraMail will play their messages in either LIFO
(last-in-first-out) or FIFO (first-in-first-out) order. Since Message Playback Direction lets a subscriber listen to
messages in the order they find most helpful, check with them to find out how they want this option set. If the
subscriber prefers to hear their new messages first, enable LIFO (last-in-first-out) listening order. The newest
(last-in) messages are at the top of the message list and the oldest messages are at the bottom of the list. If the
subscriber wants to be reminded of their oldest messages first, enable FIFO (first-in-first-out) listening order.
The oldest (first-in) messages are at the top of the message list and the newest messages are at the bottom.

Message Reply
Message Reply
Description
A Subscriber Mailbox user can reply to a message from a co-worker by dialing RE, without knowing the
caller’s extension or mailbox number. Message Reply saves the subscriber valuable time since they don’t
need to know the sender’s extension number or send a separate message to respond. The subscriber can just
listen to the co-worker’s message, dial a code, and record their answer. The message sender receives the
reply as a new message.

Message Storage Limit sets how many messages can be left in a Subscriber Mailbox. Message Storage Limit
is another invaluable tool for managing IntraMail’s voice message storage space. To conserve storage space
and make it available for ne w messages, decrease the Message Storage Limit. If storage space is not an issue,
increase the Message Storage Limit so subscribers can store additional messages. Be sure to let the subscribers know how many messages their mailbox es can hold. By default, IntraMail can store up to 99 messages in
each Subscriber Mailbox.

Message Waiting Lamp
Message Waiting Lamp
Description
An extension’s Ring/Message Lamp flashes on the telephone to indicate that the user has new messages
waiting in their mailbox. Once IntraMail is properly installed and programmed, telephone Ring/Message
Lamp operation is automatic. The Ring/Message Lamp will flash fast when there are new messages in the
extension user’s mailbox. The Ring/Message Lamp is a visual reminder of new messages. The subscriber
does not have to call their mailbox and listen to the voice prompts to find out when they have new messages.
