Mailbox Greetings
Overview
Mailbox greetings play when a caller reaches a user's mailbox.
There are two greetings: one that plays when the user's phone is busy and the other when they don't answer
or when they have their phone in Call Forwarded Always to voice mail.
The default no-answer greeting plays a message recorded by the user.
A typical user-recorded greeting would identify the user and inform callers that they are unable to answer
their call-example: "Hello. You have reached John Doe. I am in today but missed your call.
If you would like, please leave your name, telephone number and message at the sound
of the tone and I will return your call as soon as possible. Thank you."
The greeting can also include a fixed system prompt that instructs the caller to leave
a message after the tone or to press a key for further options.
The default busy greeting plays a fixed system message that informs the caller
that the user is on the phone followed by the prompt to leave a message.
The three parts of the greeting-mailbox name, greeting body, and fixed system
message or prompt-are optional. You can control which parts play by editing the
user's mailbox settings and selecting from the options in the table below.
The options allow you to, for example, play the user name and system prompt
or play just the greeting body. The greeting body can be a personal greeting
(e.g., "Hello, You have reached John Doe....) recorded by the mailbox user or
a standard greeting such as "Welcome to ABC Corporation.
That extension is not available. Please leave a message."
The standard greeting is recorded to an audio file and downloaded into
the system using the System Audio Files Update form.
Non-Busy Options
The following table describes the behavior when bilingual operation is disabled
and the mailbox is set up-that is, a name and personal greeting has been recorded by the owner.
If the mailbox is NOT setup, the fixed system message,
"I'm sorry, the person you're trying to reach is unavailable at this time" plays instead of
the personal greeting and the mailbox number plays instead of the mailbox name.
