Reminder Messages and Notifications

(Displaying and Answering)
Your communications server can be set up to signal you when you
have reminder messages, PhoneMail notifications, or ROLMfax
notifications.
A reminder message indicates that someone has tried to reach you and
wants you to call them back. A PhoneMail notification indicates that
you have received one or more new PhoneMail messages. A
ROLMfax notification signals you when you have one or more new
facsimiles waiting. The PhoneMail and ROLMfax systems are options
that may or may not be a part of your system. Version 6.4 does not
support ROLMfax.
If your phone has a Mailbox key but not a PhoneMail (PHMAIL) key,
the Mailbox key will light up when you have any of these reminder
messages and notifications.
You can scroll through your messages and notifications (on a display
phone) and then call back the party or system by pressing a single key.
(See "Using Your Mailbox" on page 2–21.)
If your phone has a PhoneMail (PHMAIL) key, it will light up when
you have PhoneMail messages. On versions prior to Version 6.4, only
non-display phones could have a PhoneMail key. Version 6.4 and
higher also supports a PhoneMail key for display phones.
If you have a PhoneMail key and a Mailbox key, the Mailbox key will
light up when you have reminder messages or ROLMfax notifications.
You can have both these keys on non-display phones, and on display
phones on Version 6.4 and higher.
You can also gain access to specific messages and notifications by
dialing designated numbers.
For information about how to use the Mailbox key to leave a reminder
message, see "Using Your Mailbox" on page 2–21.
