Considerations for Creating Mailboxes
Remember the following as you create mailboxes:
You can create a combined total of 100 Call Answer Service, Bulletin
Board, and Automated Attendant mailboxes. To avoid call traffic
problems, however, the following maximums are recommended: 60 for a
six-port system, 40 for a four-port system, and 20 for a two-port system.
You can create up to 58 Transfer-Only mailboxes, in addition to the 100
mailboxes cited above.
Only mailboxes 10 through 57, 71 through 74, and 771 through 776 can
have a Transfer-Permitted Class of Service.
Class of Service 18 should be used only for special situations, such as
dictation where a long message needs to be recorded.
Before you can change the System Administrator’s mailbox from the
factory setting to another mailbox, you must first create the other mailbox.
For more information, see Mailbox in Chapter 5.
