On Faculty and staff phones

  • push the Message button (on a new black phone) or dial 6480 from an old phone to get the system
  • Press 2 to hear a message
  • and 76 to delete it
  • Press 4 to back up one message in the queue, and 6 to skip forward one message. Tapping 1 will skip back in a long message you're listening to; 3 skips forward.

You probably want to put a personal hello message on your voice mail. To deal with your greetings you press 82. Press 1 for your external greeting and 2 for the internal one At that point you can listen to a greeting by pressing 2; re-record it by pressing 5, talking, and pressing # when you've finished; and erase it with 76. (It plays the external greeting for everybody if you don't record an internal one.)

Brief instructions about holding calls, forwarding, conference calls and other fancy stuff are on pages 2-3 of the little campus phone booklet. The complete manual for the voice mail system and lots of other information about setting up telephone message distribution lists and so on is at http://www.evergreen.edu/telecom/voicemail.htm
