You manage mailboxes from the "Mailboxes" data view. You can add, edit, delete, search for, and show all mailboxes from this view.
The Mailbox data view is divided into 2 distinct areas: the search area and the list area. Because there may be thousands of mailboxes in a system, you can perform a search for a single mailbox, or a range of mailboxes, to display. The resulting list is sorted in ascending order by mailbox number. You can then select from the list a single mailbox, or a range of mailboxes, to add, edit, or delete.
To open the Mailbox data view
In the navigation tree, click Mailbox Maintenance, and then click Mailboxes.
Use the Search or Show All button to display mailbox information.
A common view is displayed, from which you can add, edit, delete, search for and show all mailboxes.
Since a mailbox has a lot of programmable data, the data is categorized and presented under different tabs. Each mailbox has a Basic view, which provides the tabs required for basic mailbox configuration, and an Advanced view, which enables more tabs so you can configure additional features. Tabs are context specific so some tabs do not appear under some conditions.
The following list contains all of the available tabs:
General
Class of Service
Message Waiting
Outdial Applications
Personal Distribution Lists
System Distribution Lists
UI Mapping
Statistics
Miscellaneous
For a complete listing of the parameters on these tabs, see Mailbox Parameters.
To page through the Mailbox Data View
You can navigate any multi-page display using the page number links or the Next/Previous/First/Last links on the right side of each page, at the top and bottom of the list.
To select a mailbox
Select a check box beside the mailbox to modify OR you can click Edit > Range and then enter a range of mailboxes to modify.
To display mailbox data
Each mailbox displays number, name, extension, and department data. Each mailbox in the list is also a link to the detailed configuration for that mailbox. To modify mailbox data, you can click the mailbox link OR you can select the mailbox check box and then click Edit.
Note: Rotational mailboxes must be configured using the Text Console.
