structions given by the voice mail server.

Voice mail forwarding

With this feature, calls that are received at a specified
extension can be forwarded to a voice mail server (See
( page 41).

Leaving a message

Most callers access the called party mailbox when the
called party is not at the usual workstation (Voice mail
forwarding). On such occasions, the caller hears a greet-
ing announcement and can leave a message at the mail-
box.
Example:
The HiPath 1100 receives a call of a user who is not at
the company at that particular moment. The user's ex-
tension is programmed to use the Mail Voice feature
and forward the call to your mailbox. The HiPath 1100
answers the call and connects the mailbox to the voice
mail of the user who is not available to answer it.
The caller will hear a greeting announcement and will
then be able to leave a message in the mailbox.
