Incomplete
messages
• If a caller leaves a very long message, part of it may be lost
when the system disconnects the call after four minutes.
• If the caller pauses for more than seven seconds, the sys-
tem stops recording and disconnects the call.
• If the system’s memory becomes full during a message, the
system stops recording and disconnects the call.
• If the caller's voice is very soft, the system may stop
recording and disconnects the call.
