Configuring your system for Unified Messaging

Before you install Unified Messaging

Before using Unified Messaging:
• In Element Manager, enable the Unified Messaging keycode and the (optional) Fax keycode.
For information on enabling software keycodes, refer to the Keycode Installation Guide.
• In CallPilot Manager, ensure that the number of maximum outcalling channels is enough to
accommodate the expected CallPilot telephone player usage. This value governs the number of
simultaneous channels used for outcalling. For information on setting the outcalling channels,
refer to the CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide.
Unified Messaging and data network security
Due to the complexity and diversity of network configurations, this guide does not cover data
network security issues. Discuss security issues with a security specialist or data network
administrator.

Configuring IMAP/LDAP/SMTP servers for Unified Messaging

CallPilot supports IMAP/LDAP protocols, which let Unified Messaging subscribers access their
CallPilot mailboxes using Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes, Novell GroupWise, and selected
third-party Internet mail clients: Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, Netscape
Messenger, and Qualcomm Eudora Pro.
Each type of desktop client is configured and used slightly differently. To configure a specific
desktop client, refer to
Although you individually configure each desktop client you use for Unified Messaging, you
configure Business Communications Manager the same way for all the desktop clients it supports.
Follow the instructions in this chapter to configure the IMAP/LDAP/ SMTP servers.
IMAP
Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) lets a client access and use electronic mail messages on
a server. These messages are always stored on Business Communications Manager.
