Mailbox greetings

There are three types of Personal mailbox greetings: Primary, Alternate and Personalized.

Primary mailbox greeting

This is your everyday mailbox greeting. In this greeting include your name, mailbox number and a brief message explaining to callers that you are unable to answer their calls.

Alternate mailbox greeting

This is a special greeting for times when you are away from the office or on vacation.

Personalized mailbox greeting

Up to three Personalized mailbox greetings are available when your company subscribes to Caller ID (CLID) services from your local telephone company.

A Personalized mailbox greeting plays to callers based on the caller???s telephone number. CallPilot recognizes the assigned incoming telephone number and plays the Personalized mailbox greeting.
