PC access

From a desktop PC, subscribers and administrators can use the following
Octel Unified Messenger applications.

Octel Unified Messenger Options

The Octel Unified Messenger Options application enables subscribers to
modify their mailbox settings at any time from their PC user interface.

Note:

The Octel Unified Messenger Options can also be accessed
from the telephone user interface.

Subscribers can modify all or some of their mailbox settings, depending
on how the mailbox is configured by the administrator.

When a mailbox is initially enabled for voice mail, the administrator sets
subscriber defaults for incoming call and message handling. The
administrator also determines the initial telephone password, sets defaults
for the greeting played to outside callers when the line is busy or
unanswered, determines how voice messages are sorted in the subscriber
mailbox, and specifies the default fax printing telephone number.

For more information on Octel Unified Messenger Options, see the Octel
Unified Messenger Subscriber’s Reference Guide.

Octel Unified Messenger Voice Form

The Octel Unified Messenger Voice Form application provides a quick
and easy way to send voice messages from within Microsoft Exchange. It
makes recording and sending voice messages from the desktop PC as easy
as writing and sending e-mail messages.

Subscribers can reply to and forward voice messages with both voice and
e-mail messages. They can also attach an e-mail or voice message to a fax
message.

For more information on Octel Unified Messenger Voice Form, see the
Octel Unified Messenger Subscriber’s Reference Guide.

Octel Unified Messenger Voice Recorder

With Octel Unified Messenger Voice Recorder, subscribers can record
voice and embed recordings as a voice object into an OLE or ActiveX
application, such as Microsoft Word. Recipients of the document can
listen to and change the recording, using Octel Unified Messenger Voice
Recorder.

Octel Unified Messenger Voice Recorder works independently from
Microsoft Exchange and Octel Unified Messenger’s Voice Form. It can be
used to send voice messages.
