How do I send a voicemail to a contact or personal distribution list?
When you send a voicemail message, you can address the message to a contact or distribution list by entering the two-digit speed dial number. (For example, you must enter the leading 0 in 01.) You will need to remember the speed dial number associated with the contact or distribution list. Alternatively, you can create a voice tag which is a name you record for your contact or distribution list. If you create a voice tag, you will hear the recorded name instead of the assigned speed dial number. When you send a message, you will hear, "Press 1 to send your voicemail message to Cathy" rather than "Press 1 to send your voicemail message to contact 05." To create a voice tag, log in to the voicemail system through the telephone, press 5 on your telephone keypad (Set Greetings or Change Personal Options), and follow the prompts.

Faxes can be sent to your direct phone number. If you answer a call and hear a fax tone, hang up and do not answer the next call, or follow the instructions to transfer a call directly to voicemail. Most fax machines will automatically re-dial the phone number if they do not connect the first time. Once a fax call is answered by the Oracle Voicemail & Fax system, the fax is stored in your e-mail Inbox along with your other messages and can be viewed using any viewer that supports TIF files.

Default System Greeting: The system plays a voice greeting indicating that you are unavailable, or if you have recorded your name, it will play your recorded name in the system greeting. Personal Greeting: You record a personalized greeting for your mailbox. For example: Alternate Greeting: You record an alternative personalized greeting for your mailbox which can be used, for example, when you are away from the office or on vacation. For example: "This is John Doe of Oracle Corporation. I am away from the office on business until Friday, September 17. I will be checking my messages periodically. Please leave a detailed message after the tone."

No. When you double-click on a message in e-mail, it is marked as "Read." In the telephone interface, this message is moved to your saved message queue. This occurs even if you do not actually listen to the WAVE file attachment containing the voicemail message. If this should occur, you can listen to the message from the telephone interface by pressing 3 on the Main Menu.

You have probably already deleted this voicemail message through the telephone interface. The IMAP server gives you this error because you are trying to delete a message that it cannot find. Remember that you no longer have two separate accounts for voicemail and e-mail. They are one account accessible through multiple interfaces. To avoid this error, if you delete your voicemail from your phone, do not try to delete the related e-mail message from your e-mail Inbox. The next time your e-mail client refreshes, this message header will disappear.

This occurs when the IMAP client running on your PC is set to poll for new messages, and you use the telephone to delete a message. The IMAP client on your PC has cached the message header information on the PC. Therefore, the deleted message remains in your Inbox until you restart your IMAP client or re-synchronize with the e-mail server.

There are two possible explanations:
If there is a backlog in the delivery of mail (including e-mail, voicemail, and faxes), then delivery of your voice messages will also be delayed.
The second and the more likely explanation is that you may be close to your e-mail quota. Your voice and e-mail messages are both stored in your e-mail account and, therefore, count towards your quota. If you are close to or are over quota, your voice messages are queued for delivery until you clean out your e-mail account and increase the space in your account.
