Voice Mailbox

This unit provides 3 mailboxes (mailbox 1, 2, 3) 
for recording voice messages. Callers using a 
touch tone phone can leave a message in a 
specific mailbox by entering a mailbox number. 
Callers who use rotary phones or do not specify 
a mailbox can leave messages in mailbox 1. 
Also, passwords can be assigned to mailboxes 2 
and 3. This is useful if you share the unit with 
other people, because only the person who 
knows the mailbox password can listen to 
messages in a mailbox.

Record your TAM/FAX greeting message 
(page 61).

Program a password for mailbox 2 or 3, if 
necessary.

For mailbox 2 password, see feature #51
