Using the network mailbox

Using the network mailbox
Some fixed line network providers and
VoIP providers offer answer machines on
the network – these are known as network
mailboxes.
Each network mailbox accepts incoming
calls made via the corresponding line
(fixed line network or corresponding VoIP
phone number). To record all calls, you
should therefore set up network mail-
boxes for both the fixed line network and
for each of your VoIP connections.
You need to have requested the network
mailbox for your fixed line network con-
nection from your fixed line network pro-
vider. You can store the phone number for
the fixed line network mailbox in the base
station.
You can activate/deactivate the network
mailboxes for your VoIP connections using
your handset or the Web configurator. To
do this, you only require the network mail-
box phone number.
