Managing Your Greeting

Your greeting is the message played to callers when they reach your voicemail. You can choose from a selection of different greetings.

• Your personal greeting is your normal message. You recorded your personal greeting when you set up your account.
• If you do not want to use a personal greeting or an internal greeting, you can choose a system greeting instead.

To work with your greetings, press 3 from the Main menu. When you enter this menu you will hear an announcement stating what greeting you are currently using, and whether or not you are accepting messages.

Managing your Personal Greeting

Your personal greeting is a message that you will have recorded when you set up your account. It is played to callers when they reach your voicemail.

If you do not want to use a personal greeting, you can use any of a number of system generated greetings. See below.

To change your personal greeting, press 1 from the greetings menu.

An announcement will play back your current personal greeting. If you haven’t recorded an internal greeting, you are immediately prompted to do. If you have, you are presented with the following options.

• To re-record your internal greeting, press 1.
  • You will then be prompted to record your new greeting. Press the # key when finished. An announcement will play back your recording.
