Voice Mail Administration
Administrator Mailbox
Administrator Mailbox
A system administrator’s mailbox is defined in order to record custom Audiotex recordings for
voice processor applications created in Applications Programming, broadcast messages to all
subscribers, and perform Mailbox and Group List maintenance.
The administrator mailbox must be activated in Database (DB) Programming before it can be
initialized. If applicable, contact your system administrator for assistance.
NOTE
To provide system security, all mailboxes and extension IDs should have a
passcode. To make passcodes difficult to guess, they should not match the
mailbox number or consist of one digit repeated several times. This is especially
important for the administrator mailbox, which allows programming access to other
mailboxes.
Initializing the Administrator Mailbox
You must initialize the administrator mailbox before you can use it.
To initialize the administrator mailbox:
1. Dial the voice mail access number.

3. Say or enter the administrator’s mailbox number.

If you want a passcode, enter a new passcode using digits 0 to 9 (up to 12 digits),
and then press #. The system plays back your passcode.
If you do not want to use a passcode, press #.
6. Press # or say “Accept” to accept the entry, or press 3 or say “Erase” to erase and reenter
your passcode. The system prompts you to record your directory name.
7. After the tone, record your first and last names.
8. When prompted, do one of the following:
Press # or say “Accept” again to accept the name.
