System Management Operations
System management operations are primarily concerned with retrieving
messages from the General Mailbox.
Retrieving Messages from the General
Mailbox
The General Mailbox handles overflow fax messages. Overflow indicates that
the subscriber’s mailbox is either too small, or is not being emptied out on a
regular basis. The General Mailbox Service Administrator is responsible for
delivering messages to the appropriate subscriber and deleting them from the
General Mailbox.
The General Mailbox functions like any other mailbox. To collect the messages
left in the General Mailbox, log in as 9999. The default password is 1-2-3-4.
