Inter-Tel voice mail systems support the following types of mailboxes:
• Advanced Mailbox: If E-Mail Reader is enabled for your mailbox, you have
access to voice mail, e-mail, and fax messages in your mailbox. You can also cus-
tomize your personal mailbox options, and access advanced messaging features.
See page 95 for information and instructions about using E-Mail Reader features.
For a voice mail flowchart for advanced mailbox users, see page 107.
• Standard Voice Mailbox: This type of mailbox allows you to send and receive
voice mail messages, record personal greetings, and allows you to customize per-
sonal mailbox options. A standard voice mailbox does not allow you to access e-
mail and fax messages. For a voice mail flowchart for standard mailbox users,
see page 123.
NOTE: If you have the Enterprise
®
Messaging (EM) voice mail system, you also have
access to advanced communication and messaging features such as E-Mail Reader
and Automatic Speech Recognition (ARS). For more information about EM, see
