The 5-button analog multiline telephone (no longer available) has neither a
Message LED nor a Message button.
MDC 9000 and MDW 9000 telephones cannot receive Leave Message or Posted
Message messages. They can receive operator (Send/Remove Message) and
voice mail message notification. When the telephone is turned on,
MSG
appears on
the display.
Single-Line Telephones

Single-line telephone users cannot post a message.
To use the Leave Message feature while listening to ringback or the busy tone on
a single-line telephone, dial
#25
. To use Leave Message without calling the
extension, lift the handset (the telephone must connect to an SA or ICOM button),
then dial
#53
and the person’s extension number.
If a single-line telephone sends message to a nondisplay telephone user and
there is no voice messaging system, the caller receives
no
error indication, and no
message is sent.
In either case, if the person’s message box is full or the receiver is a single-line
telephone or a multiline telephone without a display, the caller hears a beep
indicating that the message has not been left.
To cancel a message sent, lift the handset and dial
#*53
and the extension
number where the message was left.
Single-line telephone users without a Message LED hear a stutter dial tone when
a message is waiting. A single-line telephone user cannot respond to messages
by using feature codes. Normally, if a single-line telephone has a Message LED, it
is turned off by an operator. However, a single-line user can turn off the Message
LED by lifting the handset and (while listening to inside dial tone) dialing
#54
.
Check with all message sources (system operator, fax, voice messaging) before
turning off the LED.

If a caller at a display telephone leaves a message for an extension that does not
have a display and there is no voice messaging system on the system, the caller
sees an error display. If there is a voice messaging system, the Message LED of
the receiving telephone turns on.
If a message is sent from a nondisplay multiline telephone to another nondisplay
telephone and there is no voice mail system connected to the communications
system, the caller hears an error beep and no message is sent.
