<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Unfortunately, you won't be able to do what you
want to do in the way you described. The rule with forwarding and voicemail is
that it will always go to the voicemail box of the original forwarding party. If
the original forwarded DN does not have a voicemail box, typically it will send
you to the opening greeting. (If that DN is an Internet subscriber you
can change the behaviour.) </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Assuming you have Unity, to do what you want to do,
it is best to set up call handlers. If you are planning on giving GUI access,
you can use the standard, closed and alternate greeting to accomplish what you
want. If you want to use only the TUI, i.e. greetings administrator, then you
would need a set of call handlers where by you control the first to branch off
to the second. The first would have standard which would be your open greeting,
the first alternate greeting would branch to the second when enabled. the second
open could be your two hour delay and the second alternate could be closed.

calls from an IP phone to a set of VMboxes..</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV><!-- Converted from text/rtf format --><BR><BR>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi everyone--</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm trying to set up a scenario where users call a
given extension-</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Based on how the forwards
are set up in /ccmuser people would get sent to a different VM box (eg, hear a
different OGM)</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>The idea is that we're a school district-- the
school hotline is 6188.</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have configured
4186,4187,4188 as the three VM boxes with greetings of "school is open",
"school is on an 2 hour delay", "school is closed"</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>That way, the non-techie guy who makes the call at
4am can just log into the CCMUSER page for that 6188 phone, and change it's
forwarded-to extension.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Working:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've
set up each one with a 'fake' phone- with the three checkboxes for
forwarding/transfer all checked for 'voicemail'</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>I can call any of the three Vmboxes (fake phone) from a regular IP
phone on the system.</FONT> </P><BR>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Not working:</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>I
do the 'forward option' on the CCMUser page for extension 6188 -- I set it to,
say, 4186 "school is open"</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Checking in the
CCMAdmin pages for that phone-- the 4186 shows up in the first of the three
text boxes- 'forward all"</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Calling 6188---</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>_EVERY_ single time, I get nothing but the VM box belonging to 6188
--</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I "forward all" on 6188 to a "real" IP phone, it
works fine--- it goes to that phone, and to it's VM…</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>What apparently doesn't work is to have an
'unregistered' phone ( a fake 7910 that never existed) set up, forwarded to
VM</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>That doesn't 'react' in the right way---</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I tried the same thing with a CTI route point -
called '4186' --</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>That should have
sent the call to the correct Vmbox for 4186, shouldn't it???</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>anyone follow what I'm doing here? can you see
what's not happening and why?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks, Tim</FONT> </P>
