Voicemail Systems
Voicemail systems can be much more sophisticated than answering machines in that they can: answer many phones at the same time; store incoming voice messages in personalized mailboxes associated with the user’s phone number; enable users to forward received messages to another voice mailbox; send messages to one or more other user voice mailboxes; add a voice introduction to a forwarded message; store voice messages for future delivery; make calls to a telephone or pager to notify the user a message has arrived in his/her mailbox; transfer callers to another phone number for personal assistance; play different message greetings to different callers.
