Entering the Destination

After you press 3 to send a message, the system will prompt you to enter the destination.  You can enter either a mailbox number (followed by #) or press * and then enter a personal distribution list number (followed by #).  You can enter several destinations, if you wish, or just one.  When you are finished, press # again.

 

For example, to send a message only to mailbox 420, enter 420##.

 

Recording the Message

Next, you will be prompted to record your message at the tone.  When you are finished recording, press #.
