PARTNER Messaging, available in a 2-, 4-, or 6-port configuration, is an
embedded voice messaging system housed in a module (circuit pack) that
plugs into the Partner system carrier. It replaces the Partner Mail VS system,
and adds substantial additional features. Most importantly, it joins Avaya’s
Unified Messaging architecture:
The Unified Messaging Application is a software application that
interfaces between PARTNER Messaging and email servers
(Microsoft Exchange servers and SMTP servers). The Unified
Messaging Application receives PARTNER Messaging voice mail
messages and forwards them to the email server(s) so that users can
access their voice messages from their email account. Users can view
these voice mail messages as they would normally view their email
messages using any email client (for example, Microsoft Outlook for
an Exchange email server, and Yahoo mail or AOL mail for SMTP
email servers). The mail messages have attached .WAV files that the
users can play using an audio player on their PC.

Partner Messaging supports 3 languages, two of which can be active. The
disk has 100 hours of recording capacity, and supports up to 200 mailboxes,
with up to 120 messages, 180 minutes per mailbox, administrable on a per-
mailbox basis. Users can record their personal phone calls using Record-a-
Call up to 60 minutes in length
17
. There are 4 Auto Attendants, and
Day/Night mode operation.
With support for 200 mailboxes, yet Partner dial plans supporting only 48
extensions, one might wonder of what use are all the extra mailboxes. These
can be used as guest mailboxes, and are dialable from the Messaging
prompts. Calls from ACS cannot be transferred to extra mailboxes; callers
may be transferred to the voice mail extension (777) and instructed to dial *8
plus the three digit mailbox number.
Partner Messaging requires a PC Card to enable 2, 4, or 6-port operation. The
port card includes a modem (“Remote Maintenance Device.”)
