Voicemail: Setup and Access

The voicemail system offers robust functionality for managing messages and greetings. To access voicemail settings, users navigate to the Homepage, select "Messages," and then click on the "Settings" tab. From here, they can enable or disable voicemail and customize various options.

Recording a greeting is a straightforward process. Users select the "Record" button and enter a phone number where they wish to be called. They then assign a name to the greeting and select "Call." The system will initiate a call to the specified number, prompting the user to record their new greeting. This feature allows for personalized greetings, enhancing the professional image of the user.

Voicemail to Email is a convenient feature that automatically sends voicemail messages to the email address associated with the user's account. Within the "Unified Messaging" section, users can choose the desired format for delivery, providing flexibility in how they receive and manage their messages.

Voicemail Instructions

Accessing voicemail can be done directly from the device or from another phone. To access from the device, users simply dial *98. The system will then prompt for a password. To access from another phone, users call their own phone number and press * when prompted during the voicemail greeting. A password will be required. It is important to note that the voicemail password is the same as the user's account password. When navigating through any menu, pressing # will return the user to the previous menu.

The voicemail system offers a main menu with several options. Pressing 1 allows users to access new messages, while pressing 2 provides access to old messages. Option 5 is for setting various options, and option 6 is for changing greetings. Users can recover deleted messages by pressing 7.

Within the "Messages" menu, after a message plays, users have several actions available. Pressing 1 saves the message, 2 repeats it, and 3 forwards it. Option 4 deletes the message, 5 moves to the next message, and 6 allows for a reply. Pressing # finishes the message interaction.

The "Greetings" menu offers specific controls for managing greetings. Pressing 1 allows users to record a new greeting, 2 to review existing greetings, and 3 to select a different greeting. Pressing # returns to the previous menu. Users can re-record a greeting by pressing 1, and the system supports multiple greetings. It is important to note that voicemail cannot be forwarded to a ring group.

Under "Options," users can change their password by pressing 1 and record their name by pressing 2. For additional information, users can refer to the User Guide available at www.impacthostedpbx.com/support.
