They currently use a CS for a malbox list. I dont want to change mailbox numbers, because they are on business cards and such (the system has been running since when ever -3 was current firmware)
Now that the number of mailboxes has grown, the want to use dial by name. I need to keep the extension number the same as the mailbox number so when the dial by name menu list the extension, you enter it, and go to the correct mailbox number bruce ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wolfgang Boernert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'brucek'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 6:56 PM Subject: RE: KX-T: A question about Dial by Name and mailboxes > Bruce > > Just make Phantom mailboxes 3XX > This way it won't go to any extension > > Instead of dial by name directory, I use Custom 9 and just record > > You have reached XYP Company dialing directory > > For Jim Smith dial 301 > For Sally Smith dial 302 > For Tom Jones dial 303 > Etc > Etc > Etc > > Wolfgang > NTC > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of > brucek > Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 18:57 > To: [email protected] > Subject: KX-T: A question about Dial by Name and mailboxes > > I have a customer with a TD1232-3 + TVS100 > > They have about 12 exts that are shared by many people, with no one > assigned > to any particular ext. > > They have about 25 mailboxes that the employees use, soon to increase. > > They now want to add a dial by name option. > > > > Well, I discovered that you cant use Dial by Name unless there is an ext > number entered in the mailbox. > > I was thinking of giving each mailbox an ext number the same as the > mailbox > number (what I usually do when each ext actually has its own mailbox,) and > setting the mailboxes for all calls to transfer to the mailbox. > > > > Most of the mailbox numbers don't correspond to an actually ext number, > but > some do. > > So far this seems to work, but I am wondering if there are any gotch-ya's > I'm missing. > > > > Also, if I re-record prompt 296 "extension (extension number)" to be > "Mailbox", is that used anywhere else?
