I've inherited a terribly-documented phone system and I'm trying to figure out our Auto Attendant so that it works correctly. Not sure if I'm getting all of this lingo right but it sounds like we're on a Nortel MICS 5.0 system running Voice Mail 4.0. We've also got Prelude and Cinphony ACD.
Basically, when our business is closed our auto attendant answers and plays the correct message. However, after the message, a voice says "One moment please", and then rings about 13 times. I looked at the switchboard (extension 2100) when this happens, and the intercom button is lit up, and the screen says "5558675307>H2285" while it rings. When I look up extension 2285 in the **266855 login under Terminals & Sets, it's named VMAIL. After 13 rings or so, the GENERAL_DELIVERY mailbox (mailbox 1000) greeting plays.
The first thing I'm trying to figure out is why it's ringing 13 times. Where is that setting? If our business is closed, I would prefer the AA greeting to play, and then immediately go to the GENERAL_DELIVERY mailbox. Even during the day when the business is open, if I call and the receptionist does not answer, it takes about 13 rings for the Auto Attendant greeting to kick in.
Any ideas?
