Voice Mailbox 7 Answering Machine

7.1 Mailbox features

This unit provides 3 mailboxes (mailbox 1, 2, 3)
for recording voice messages. Callers using a
touch tone phone can leave a message in a
specific mailbox by entering a mailbox number.
Callers who use rotary phones or do not specify
a mailbox can leave messages in mailbox 1.
Also, passwords can be assigned to mailboxes 2
and 3. This is useful if you share the unit with
other people, because only the person who
knows the mailbox password can listen to
messages in a mailbox.
