Guest mailboxes and Partner Messaging

[OLVtelephoneman]

The Avaya documentation on guest mailboxes in Partner Messaging (R7) is confusing. Is there a limit to the number of guest mailboxes that can be set up on a system? I need about 25 for the staff of a small school. The school has only a few telephones so most staff members do not have their own extension, but each needs a mailbox.

Hi OLVtelephoneman,
No limit within reason and the system maximum. Pick your mailboxes within the normal range so you can easily do a direct vm transfer, indicate to the mailbox "does not have a phone" when you set it up. You can set up outcalling to cell phones to indicate a message has arrived.
