Directory Dialing allows an Automated Attendant caller to reach an extension by dialing the first
few letters in the extension user's name. With Directory Dialing, the caller does not have to remem-
ber the extension number of the person they wish to reach — just their name. Here's how Directory
Dialing works:
1. When the Automated Attendant answers, it sends the call to a Directory Dialing Mailbox.
(Optionally, the caller may be asked to dial a digit to access Directory Dialing.)
2. The Directory Dialing Mailbox plays the Directory Dialing Message which asks the caller to
dial letters for the name of the person they wish to reach.
3. The caller dials the letters for the person's name plus #. They can dial by first name or last
name, depending on how the Directory Dialing Message was recorded and the Directory Dial-
ing Mailbox was set up.
4. IntraMail searches the list of programmed extension names for a match of the caller-entered
letters.
5. Voice prompts announce the first three matches, and allow the caller to dial a digit (1-3) to
reach one of the announced matches. Additionally, the caller can dial 4 to hear additional
matches (if any).
6. The caller dials the digit for the extension they wish to reach, and IntraMail sends the call to that
