1.4.1 Creating, Modifying, or Deleting a Mailbox through VP
System Screens
You can create, modify, or delete a mailbox using options on VP system screens. Through
the screen interface, intricate technical modifications can be made to the mailbox that cannot
be made through the VP system telephone interface. This guide includes instructions on
making on-screen entries in fields that do not require an in-depth knowledge of the VP
system. Before making modifications to fields other than those documented here, contact the
VP system installation technician.
To create, modify, or delete a mailbox through the DOS-based VP system screen
interface:
1. From the Main menu, select BOX INFORMATION. The Box Information menu displays.
2. Highlight MAIL BOX from the Boxes menu then press <Enter>. To add a new box, press
<F2>. To modify or delete an existing box, press<F4>.
3. Enter the box number you want to create, modify, or delete, then press <Enter>. If you
are creating a box, the VP system makes a copy of prototype mailbox 9994 (a template
mailbox) and displays the new box. If you are modifying or deleting an existing box, the
VP system displays the box’s setup screen. You can make modifications to the box from
this screen or delete the box completely. If you want to delete the box, verify you are
viewing the box you want to delete, then press <F3>. When you are prompted to confirm
the deletion, press <Y>.
For information on making modifications to fields on this screen, consult the information
