Voicemail Pro Installation and Maintenance Guide
To set the Voicemail Pro system fax number:
1. From the Administration menu, select Preferences.
The System Preferences window is displayed.
2. Click the General tab.
3. In the System Fax Number box, type the number of the general fax machine to which all
incoming faxes are to be directed. This number must match the number of the analog extension
that is connected to the fax board of the fax server PC.
4. Intuity mailbox owners can receive fax messages into their mailboxes and set a preferred fax
number to use instead of the system fax number. As the administrator you still need to set up a
system fax number to enable mailbox owners to set their own numbers. A personal mailbox fax
number overrides the system fax number. Mailbox owners can find out more in the Intuity Mailbox
User Guide.
5. If your fax system requires prefix addressing, for example the C3000 fax server, do not type a fax
number In the System Fax Number box. Instead type the number to use as a prefix so that a fax
message can be identified and forwarded to the extension number of the intended recipient. For
example if the prefix were 54, a fax message for extension 201 would have the prefix of 54
automatically added so that the complete number would become 54201.
6. To use the specified prefix, check the Use as a Prefix box so that the number that you typed in
to the System Fax Number box is used. If your fax system does not use prefix addressing, leave
this box unchecked.
