Messaging offers a variety of greeting options for your mailbox. Below is a list of
the different greeting options and their intended purpose.
•
Default Greeting
– The default greeting is the principal greeting for your
mailbox. Once recorded, it is played each time a call is sent to your mailbox.
•
Extended Absence Greeting
– The extended absence greeting is used
when you are away from the office for an extended period of time; for instance
a business trip or vacation. Because it is separate from your Default
Greeting, you can simply deactivate it and reactivate your Default greeting
without re-recording.
•
Busy Greeting
– Depending on how your telephone extension is configured,
the busy greeting can be used for when calls arrive at your mailbox, either
because the auto attendant dialed your extension and received a busy signal,
or if your extension is programmed with a busy forward to voice mail. You can
record a custom greeting advising callers that you are on the phone and you
will return their call promptly. If you are not busy on the phone, callers will
receive your Default Greeting.
•
Custom Greetings
– Each mailbox can have up to nine custom greetings.
Custom greetings can be used for special advisements to callers for which
you don’t want to rerecord your default greeting or use an extended absence
greeting. For example, you may use a custom greeting to advise callers that
you are not in the office due to weather conditions, or to give callers other
special instructions.
