This section describes the following system messaging features:
• Inter-station messages: Inter-station messages are alerts sent to your telephone by other
internal parties, notifying you to contact the party who left the message. The
(Message) button and Message/Ring Indicator flash to notify you of the new
message. You can then either delete the message or reply to the message, which
automatically places a call to the party who left the message.
• Do-Not-Disturb (DND) messages: Messages that other internal parties see when your
telephone is in DND. See “Using Do-Not-Disturb (DND)” on page 51.
• Reminder Messages: Messages that you can use to notify yourself of upcoming
appointments, meetings, and so on. See “Using Reminder Messages” on page 52.
• Pages: Announcements sent over telephone speakers or external speakers. See “Paging
Other System Users” on page 53.
• Voice messages: System voice mail messages.
Leaving Messages at Other Extensions
You can leave inter-station or voice mail messages for other internal parties.
To leave an inter-station or voice message for a busy IC extension:

2. Do one of the following:

NOTE
Because a variety of voice mail products work with the 5000 CP, this guide
does not include voice mail instructions. For voice mail instructions, refer to
the voice mail user guide for your system. For example, refer to the
Enterprise Messaging, Basic Voice Mail, and Embedded Voice Mail Card
User Guide, part number 835.3205, or the Mitel NuPoint Messenger
Messaging User Guide on the Mitel Web site (http://edocs.mitel.com).
Contact your system administrator for more information about your voice
mail system.
