Using Several Text Message Mailboxes - Siemens Gigaset C200 Instructions Manual

Using several text message mailboxes

You can add three user-based 'personal' mailboxes to your phone, allowing up to three
persons to have their own SMS mailbox. The options are:
1 SMS,
N
3 personal mailboxes.
N
You can only use the personal mailboxes if your service provider supports
the delivery of text messages to personal mailboxes. If necessary you
i
should ask your service provider what you must do when entering the
SMS centre's numbers to use personal mailboxes (e.g. append an '*' to
the centre's number).
Open the SMS list with the message key. You will see:
All the mailboxes that have been activated,
N
All the mailboxes which contain at least one new message.
N
Access to personal mailboxes can be protected with a PIN (4 digits). With the general
mailbox this is not possible.
Setting up a personal mailbox
To be able to use several mailboxes, you must activate each mailbox and assign it an 'ID',
which is a kind of extension number.
An SMS centre receiving a text message for your number with no mailbox ID will put it
in your general mailbox.
If only the general mailbox is activated, all incoming text messages will be put in it even
though they are sent with a mailbox ID.
If you wish to protect your mailbox you can assign it a PIN which you must then enter
before you can open it.
The general mailbox cannot be assigned a PIN. Only the general mailbox is activated
when you purchase the phone. Its mailbox ID is '0'. The general mailbox cannot be deac-
tivated.
