Voicemail Boxes

In Simotel, each user can have their own dedicated voicemail box. After defining the user, a voicemail box must be created for them in the Voicemail menu. It is not necessary for the voicemail box number to match the user’s number in the system, but for better management of the voicemail boxes in the editor, it is recommended to name them identically.

  • Number: The voicemail box number (used in internal communication and the editor, similar to an extension).
