All of the voicemails in the system should appear here if they are new. Saved voicemails can be accessed by clicking the drop down menu labeled New and selecting where the voicemail could be.
Listening to voicemails here can be done several ways. To the left of the voicemail itself is the play button and this will play the audio in the browser. To the right of the voicemail you have a couple more options.
The Phone icon will call your desk phone and play the voicemail.
The right facing arrow will forward the voicemail to another user in the domain.
The Down arrow will download a WAV file to your PC.
The Floppy Disk icon will move the voicemail to the Saved folder
The Red X will delete the voicemail by moving it to the Trash folder.
Settings
If you click on the Settings tab of Messages, you can manage your voicemail options.

Inbox
These options let you change the settings for how you see and hear voicemail messages.
Operator Forward is only enabled for enhanced voicemail and lets the call press 0 to call the extension placed here if they would prefer to talk to someone instead of leaving a message.

To record a new greeting instead of uploading a file, you can click on the Record button and put in either your internal extension or any external number you have access to.
When you click Call, the system will dial out to the number and give you a prompt to record your greeting. Once you hang up, the voicemail should now be in the system to be selected

Move to Saved same as above, but the voicemail will be moved to your saved folder. Your phone extension light will not flash but you will be able to view it in the portal.
Move to Trash same as above, but the voicemail will be moved to your trash folder and eventually deleted automatically each day. Do this if you never plan on accessing your voicemail through the system and would prefer to only deal with it in your email box.
The first option is to alert you via email that your mailbox is full so that you can log in and delete files.
The second option is to email you for every missed call that you have.
