6-96 Setting up Meridian Mail security
Understanding how restriction/permission codes work
Standard 1.0 System Administration Guide January 1998
Example:
Call answering
thru-dial
Call answering/express messaging thru-dial allows callers to
transfer to another internal extension or valid telephone number
once Meridian Mail answers. If the proper restrictions are not
placed on this feature, callers will be able to place calls at your
organization’s expense.
The following illustration shows how restriction/permission
codes work in the case of call answering thru-dial.
