Group Voicemail Notifications

There are two options for group voicemail notifications. To change your current Group Voicemail notification option, contact Telephone Services at telephone-services@udel.edu.

Option 1 (default): You will not be notified that your group Voicemail box has received a message. You will need to call in to access and delete your messages. If you provide an email, please note that your email notification will not have the actual .wav file of the voicemail. It will only be a notification.

Option 2: You can provide an email address (can be a shared mailbox or Google Group) so that voicemail messages will be delivered there and will include a .wav file of the voicemail. The messages will not be stored in the voicemail system. Once you delete the email, the voicemail will be deleted. If you choose to send voicemail messages to email, test immediately after this option has been set to verify that voicemail messages are successfully received in email.

If you direct voicemail messages to a Google Group, you must set the Group's settings so that Anyone on the web can post to the Google Group. Otherwise,the voicemail messages to the group will bounce and cannot be retrieved.
