Chapter 3. Listening to Messages

When you have successfully logged in to your mailbox, you hear an announcement to tell you about the messages that you have. For example, you hear the number of voice messages and the number of e-mails and fax messages if there are any.

You can listen to your messages or record a new message and send it. If any of your messages are e-mails, you can also reply. If any of your messages are fax messages, you can specify a personal fax number so that you can forward or print them.

You will only receive e-mail messages if your voicemail account has been configured for voicemail e-mail. For more information, see your system administrator.

Each message starts with a header, which contains details about who the message is from (if known) and when it was left. For fax messages, the header includes the number of pages. By default, messages are played to you in the order listed below. You can change the order if you prefer to hear the types of messages in a different order, for example, e-mail messages first. For more information, see Setting the Order in which Messages are Played.

Voice messages.
Fax messages.
Email messages.

The message of all types is grouped into the following categories. Priority messages are presented first. New messages are played next followed by old messages.

Priority
When a caller leaves a message they can mark it as a priority message.
New
A message that has not been listened to.
Old
After you have listened to a new message it becomes an old message. Unless you delete them sooner, messages are automatically deleted after 30 days (720 hours). This is the default period but your system administrator can change the setting for different types of message. Check with your system administrator to find out how long messages are stored before they are automatically deleted.

If you specify the order in which types of messages are played to you, you hear all of the messages of one type before the next type. For example, if you specify e-mails, followed by voice messages, followed by fax messages, you hear priority, new and old e-mails followed by priority, new and old voice messages followed by priority, new and old fax messages.

While you listen to a message you have options to:

Scan through and skip the messages or the message headers .
Skip to the next message type, for example if you do not want to listen to messages that you have already accessed.
Call back the message sender .
Reply to a message, with or without the original message .
Forward it to a different extension or several extension numbers at the same time. You can add a comment to the start or end of a message that you are forwarding.

From your mailbox, you can also send a new message or record a single message and send it to several other mailboxes at the same time. Your messages are kept until they are deleted either by yourself or automatically after a pre-set time period.

The default system greeting cannot be changed. However, you can replace the system greeting with a greeting that you have recorded.

You can record a library of up to 9 personal greetings. These are the greeting messages heard by callers when they are directed to your voicemail. You can assign a different greeting for specific call situations. For example, you can assign a different greeting for calls received internally to those received from outside the company. You can also use a personal greeting message to tell callers about available transfer options. There are three types of greetings:

Temporary.
Hunt Group.
Personal.

The process for using greetings involves the following key steps:

Record your greetings.
Assign a greeting to a call type. There are two ways to assign greetings to call types:

You can select the call type and then assign the greeting .
Select a greeting and assign it to a type of call .

5.1 Temporary Greetings

A temporary greeting can be created and played for all call types. For example, a temporary greeting might be used when you are away from the office, giving the caller an alternative contact person. If you are using a temporary greeting, no other greetings are active. For more information, see Creating a Temporary Greeting.

5.2 Hunt Group Greetings

Personal greetings can be created for hunt groups. If you log in to a hunt group mailbox there are two additional greeting types available.

Out of Service – If the greeting is active it is played if a call arrives when the hunt group is out of service.
Out of Hours – If the greeting is active it is played if a call arrives during the times specified as out of hours.

Hunt group greetings are played when the temporary greeting is not being used. If no hunt group-specific greeting has been set the setting of the personal greetings is checked.

5.3 Personal Greetings

Personal greetings are played when the temporary greeting is not being used. If no personal greetings are applied callers who are directed to your mailbox hear the default system greeting – “Your call is being answered by IP Office. <Name> is not available. To leave a message wait for the tone, …”.

Personal greetings can be created for certain call types. For example, if you are busy on a call anyone calling your extension can hear a personalized greeting stating that you are on a call, but are in the office. There are six types of personal greetings:

All Calls
Internal Calls
External Calls
Number engaged calls
No reply calls
Default

When you assign a personal greeting for more than one call type, the greeting used for any call is decided using an order of priority. The priority order is shown in the flow chart. If the call is to a hunt group, the hunt group greetings are checked before the personal greetings.

5.4 Recording a Greeting

You can record a library of up to 9 greetings that can be used as either a temporary greeting or as personal greetings applied to specific call types. The greetings are heard by callers when they are directed to your voicemail.

At any time you can listen to a greeting message and re-record it.

A greeting must be longer than 3 seconds. The maximum length of a greeting is 120 seconds by default. Your system administrator will be able to tell you if the system defaults have been changed.
If you record a greeting, you can choose to not assign the greeting until you need it. This is useful if, for example, you record a greeting message for the times when you are on vacation or away on business.

To record or re-record a personal greeting:

Log in to your mailbox.
Press 3 to select personal greetings. If you have selected any call types, you hear an announcement that lists the call types and the greeting assigned to that call type.

9. Visual Voice

Visual Voice allows you to access your voicemail mailbox using the display menu of your phone rather than following spoken mailbox prompts.

To use Visual Voice, your system maintainer must either add a Visual Voice button to your phone or set the MESSAGES button to use Visual Voice.

Visual Voice is supported on most Avaya desk phones supported by IP Office subject to a suitable display. On other phones, the button can be used for mailbox access using voice prompts and for direct to voicemail transfer during a call.
On T3 phones, the Visual Voice button goes direct to the Listen function of Visual Voice. To access the full set of Visual Voice functions use Menu > Settings > Voicemail Settings.
