What if you want someone from your documentation team to have access to the mailbox of your customer service department? Sharing voice mail between multiple users, both inside and outside of a department, is an important service provided by FortiVoice Enterprise.
With a general voice mailbox, an entire group is notified when there is a new voice mail. Any member can access the voice mail, which will deactivate the notification so others know that the voice mail has been handled.
This recipe guides you through the process of establishing a general voice mailbox in FortiVoice Enterprise.
