Other Kinds of Mailboxes
53
In addition to preventing a caller from leaving a message, a greeting-only 
mailbox does not allow anyone to forward or create and send a message 
to it or reply to a message that was sent from its extension
Avoid adding a greeting-only mailbox to a personal voice mail group list.
Phantom Mailbox
A phantom mailbox does not have an actual telephone associated with it. 
The administrator sets up a phantom mailbox.
Examples:
If you are a sales representative who travels constantly for your 
organization and never comes into the office, you still need a way to 
receive telephone messages. Using your phantom mailbox, you can 
retrieve, forward, and save messages in the same way that any other 
employee can but without a physical telephone connected to your 
NBX system.
If you are an employee who lives a long distance from your office and 
works from home, customers and others can leave messages in the 
your phantom mailbox and you can call in to the NBX system to 
retrieve them, or you can listen to them from the NBX NetSet utility.
You retrieve messages from a phantom mailbox in the same way that you 
retrieve messages from a personal mailbox. See 
 earlier in this chapter.
Group Mailbox
A group mailbox is a voice mailbox from which a group of users can 
retrieve messages. Your administrator creates group mailboxes and can 
explain how to retrieve messages that are left in the group mailbox.
Example:
During nonbusiness hours, the system can send incoming telephone 
calls for your sales department to a group mailbox. Your administrator 
assigns to the appropriate sales people the ability to listen to, forward, 
or otherwise handle all messages that are directed to the group 
mailbox.
Your administrator can assign (map) a Message Waiting Indicator for the 
group mailbox to an Access button on the NBX Business Telephone of 
each group member. The light next to the mapped button indicates when 
the group mailbox has messages in it. Any group member can press the 
button to retrieve messages from the group mailbox.
