Description
The mail system needs to know the maximum number of digits that a caller or
subscriber is allowed to dial to transfer to an extension, Calling Group, Hunt Group,
or mailbox.
If the only three-digit extensions that callers need to transfer to are 771–776, and
there are no other three- or four-digit mailboxes, leave the Maximum Digit Length set
to 2. However, if there are three- or four-digit mailboxes other than 771–776, you must
set the Maximum Digit Length to 3 or 4, as appropriate.
