Call Routing Mailbox
Description
The Call Routing Mailbox, associated with an Answer Table, speci
fi
es which dialing options (Dial Action
Table) and announcements are available to Automated Attendant callers. By default, IntraMail provides 8
Call Routing Mailboxes (1-8). However, you can assign any of the 16 Routing Mailboxes as a Call Routing
Mailbox. The Call Routing Mailbox is an integral part of the Automated Attendant. The Automated Atten-
dant can automatically answer the telephone system’s incoming calls, play an Instruction Menu message,
and provide dialing options to callers. There are 3 major Automated Attendant components:
■
The Answer Table determines how the Automated Attendant answers outside calls on each trunk, according
to the time of the day and day of the week that the call is ringing. The Answer Table divides the time of day
and day of the week into individual schedules, which in turn assign a Call Routing Mailbox to each call.
When a speci
fi
c schedule is
not
in effect, the Answer Table uses its Default Mailbox to determine routing.
✔
By default, all trunks use Answer Table 1. Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday
through Friday from 8:30AM to 5:00PM.

Call Routing Mailbox
A Call Routing Mailbox is a mailbox associated with an individual Answer Table schedule or the Default
Mailbox. It speci
fi
es which dialing options (Dial Action Table) are available to callers. It also provides
the Instruction Menu to callers which typically greets the callers and describes the dialing options.
✔
By default, Answer Table 1 has a single schedule that runs Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to
5:00PM. This schedule and the Default Mailbox both use Call Routing Mailbox1.
■
Once the Automated Attendant answers, the Dial Action Table provides the dialing options to callers.
Each digit a caller can dial is assigned a speci
fi
c action (function) in the Dial Action Table. The dial
action used depends on the setting in the active Call Routing Mailbox, which in turn depends on the
Answer Table setup.
✔
By default, Call Routing Mailbox 1 uses Dial Action Table 1.
