Guest Mailbox

Description
An outside party can have their own Guest Mailbox mailbox for receiving and sending messages. A
Guest Mailbox is a Subscriber Mailbox that does not have an extension associated with it. It is instead
associated with a virtual extension. A Guest Mailbox has many of the InMail features of a Subscriber
Mailbox. A company visitor with a Guest Mailbox could, for example:
• Go to any extension, press Speaker key + Dial the InMail master number (e.g., 200), then dial their
mailbox number.
G
• Review their messages, leave messages for associates, or record a new greeting for their mailbox.
• Use many other features available to a Subscriber Mailbox.
For a brief overview of the features available at a Guest Mailbox, review the Related Features below.
Then, go to the individual feature to find out how it operates and any programming required to make it
work.
