Name addressing

You can use name addressing for addressing a message, for creating a distribution list, or for express messaging, by spelling the name on your telephone keypad.

To address by name

1.  When Voice Messaging prompts you for a mailbox number, enter the name addressing prefix.  (If you don't know the prefix, press #.)

  

2.  Spell the last name, then the first.  For Q, press 7; for Z, press 9.  For example, to reach Bob Quinn, dial 78466262.  You can stop spelling as soon as the system announces a match and places the call.

"Name found:  (name)."

If you don't know the complete name, enter the first few letters, then press #.

If you entered a partial name, the system lets you select from a list of possible matches for the name.
