Changing Recording Settings
The messaging system has several settings that control how the messaging system records messages.
Message Recording and Call Screening Limits
The messaging system server hard disk must have enough storage space to accommodate daily storage needs. Set a
maximum recording length, in seconds, for greetings and call screening to conserve disk space. These settings are
applied to all subscribers and guests.
Configuring a maximum length for a recording as well as the length of pauses helps minimize the required amount of
storage space.
Configuring Limits for Pauses
When a caller pauses for longer than the maximum amount of time while recording a message, the messaging system
assumes the caller has finished speaking and plays the next prompt.
Redirecting Messages
On the Recordings page, configure the systemwide setting that controls how the messaging system prompts
subscribers when they redirect a voice message to several subscribers. A subscriber can append a message to the
redirected message.
