Remote Notification - Nortel Meridian Mail User Manual

Remote Notification

Meridian Mail Voice Messaging can notify you of new messages at a remote telephone or
pager. Instead of calling in to your mailbox to retrieve your messages, you can specify a
number, day, and time for Remote Notification. You can change these settings easily, and
turn Remote Notification on or off as needed. Ask your system administrator if this option
is available to you.
