Assigning people to a Mailbox
A person’s telephone number must be entered into the Directory before you can assign
that person to a mailbox. For more information on Directory entries, see Creating a
New Directory Entry on page 21.
You can assign a mailbox to a group of family members or colleagues. Every person in
this group will hear the same greeting. Also, only messages left by this group are stored in
this mailbox.
Callers who do not appear in the Directory can also be directed to a mailbox. For callers to
leave a message in a specific mailbox, they must enter the mailbox number before they
record their message. For this to work properly you must inform the caller which number
to press to get the right mailbox.
For example, you may have three people who share the 9516CW and they want to have
their messages stored in separate mailboxes.
“Hello, we are unable to take your call right now. To leave a message for Bob, press ⁄;
to leave a message for John, press ¤; to leave a message for Adam, press ‹
When a caller who wants to speak to Bob presses ⁄that caller’s message is stored in mail-
