Changing the Call Screening Transfer Method
NOTE: The Call Screening feature is available only if it is enabled for your mailbox
(ask your system administrator).
Depending on the transfer method you select, transferred calls from voice mail may
be unannounced (as usual), or one of the following may occur:
“Announce Only” Calls: Before voice mail transfers a call to you, a prompt asks
the caller to record his or her name. When you answer, you hear, “You have a call
from (caller’s name).”
“Screened” Calls: Before voice mail transfers a call to you, a prompt asks the
caller to record his or her name. When you answer, you hear, “You have a call
from (caller’s name).” You can choose whether or not to accept the call (see
page 55).
