Mailbox Name
Description
When a Greeting is not recorded, a caller leaving a message in a Subscriber, Guest, Message Center, or Net-
work Alias Mailbox can hear the mailbox’s prerecorded name instead of the mailbox number. The prere-
corded Mailbox Name gives the mailbox that personal touch. Prior to leaving a message, caller’s will hear
the name instead of the default “extension xxx” prompt. Mailbox names can be up to 10 seconds long.
