  VOICE MAIL
     
 

E-ForwardAll over America busy people are adding voice mail to their current phone systems. Why?

Because voice mail not only improves communications, it makes a whole new kind of communication possible. Voice mail can redefine the way you use your telephone.

Voice mail responds to your calls when you are unable to answer your phone or when you are currently on the line. It invites callers to leave a message, then records the message and stores it in your voice mail box. Callers may leave a message at anytime, even several callers at once.

Benefits of Voice Mail
  • Your phone is answered when you are on the line or away from the phone.

  • Family mailboxes allow private messages to be left for each family member.

  • You can access your voice mailbox using any touch-tone phone, anytime, anywhere.

  • Your voice mailbox is passcode protected. The messages in your mailbox cannot be accessed without a valid passcode.

  • Voice mail can activate another phone and/or pager to notify you of urgent messages.

  • You can selectively save or discard messages in your voice mailbox.

  • Voice mail requires no special equipment or connections in your home.

Features / Option Descriptions

Sub-Mailboxes
Each user on a telephone line can have their own voice mailbox. PIN access ensures privacy. Great for roommates, family members and people who work out of their home.

Pager or Phone Notification
Great for people on the go. A reminder page or call alerts you when you have a new message left in your mailbox.

E-Forward
This feature allows you not only to store your messages in your voice mailbox, but it also converts it into an E-mail. You can listen to or forward your messages, save or delete them from your voice mailbox. This is very useful for those that have dial-up Internet service. You will never miss a message that is urgent because you are online.

Message Forwarding
This feature allows you to forward a message to another mailbox or distribution list. You can also record an intro message to tag to the front of the message you are forwarding.

Memo
This feature allows you to send memo messages to other mailboxes. The memos are sent directly to the mailboxes without their phone ringing.

Allow Out Dial
This feature allows you to dial 0 to call a preset number when reaching a mailbox. Example: "... Please leave a message at the tone, or press 0 to connect you to my cell phone."

Distribution Lists
This feature allows you to group different lists of mailboxes. Example: If you want to send a memo out to everyone in your Sales Dept., instead of sending it to each individual, you can setup a list of people in that department and simply send it to the Sales Distribution List so it will automatically be sent to to everyone listed in that department.

Auto-Login
This feature will allow you easy access to your mailbox when you are calling from the voice mail phone. Ideal for those that are not concerned with the security features and want quicker access to their voice mailbox. Can be turned on/off as desired.

Massage Waiting Indication
Feature activates the stutter dial tone, message notification or the message light on the phone when there are new messages in the mailbox.

Daily Notification
This feature allows you to setup a time of the day to notify you that you have a voice message. On the days that you do not have any new messages, the service will not give you a notification call.

Associated Numbers
This allows the user to have multiple phone numbers and share one voice mail box.

E-mail Only
This feature allows you to forward your voice messages to E-mail and automatically delete them from your voice mailbox on the service. This is useful for those that are concerned with their mailbox exceeding their capacity limit or they would rather manage their voice messages from their e-mail only.

Announcement Only
This feature is for those that want to use the service to deliver an announcement only without giving the caller the option to leave a message. This is useful for schools that want to announce school closings or businesses that want to give their business hours.
