Phonemail Instructions

An electronic voice messaging system integrated with the phone system provides you with a personal mailbox which allows you to create your own personal greeting and to listen to, save, forward, record, and deliver messages 24 hours a day from your touchtone telephone. The system has an instruction menu, which tells how to use the features. It also repeats the instructions following a brief pause. To access any option, just follow the prompts. If you know what option you want next, you may override the system by pressing the number of the option you want. When you have phonemail messages, you will hear a broken dial tone.
