Recording your name

Your personal verification is used in your greetings and addressed messages, and in
Express Messaging, Name Dialing, and Remote Notification announcements. Keep your
personal verification as brief as possible, and speak clearly.

To record a personal verification

1 While logged in to your mailbox, press 89.

You hear your current personal verification if there is one.

2 Press 5 to record. Wait for the tone, then record your name.

3 Press # to end the recording.

To play, delete, or rerecord your personal verification

You can play, delete, or rerecord your personal verification the same way as your
greetings. See Recording greetings, page 7. If you delete your personal verification, your
callers hear just your mailbox number or your name spelled one letter at a time.

To return to your messages

When you have finished recording your personal verification, press 4.

Assigning a custom operator

You can offer your callers the option of leaving a message or speaking to one of your
assistants or colleagues. In your greeting, tell callers to press zero if they wish to speak to
this person in your absence. The custom operator number is the number of the person
your callers reach when they press zero.

Ask your system administrator if you can change this number.

To review and assign your custom operator number

1 While logged in to your mailbox, press 80 for mailbox options, then press 1 to review

the custom operator number.

A prompt tells you the current custom operator number.

2 Enter the new custom operator number, then press #.
