How Meridian Mail uses the dialable number
Introduction
Once the number is translated, it is returned to the feature that
required the translation.
Fax on Demand
For Fax on Demand, the translated number will be checked
against restriction/permissions for that VSDN.
If the number passes the check, Meridian Mail dials the number
so that the requested fax can be delivered to the user. If the fax
fails the restriction/permission check, the user requesting the
fax will be informed that the number cannot be reached from
that service and asked to enter another number.
AMIS
In AMIS, the translated, dialable number will be checked
against AMIS restriction/permission lists. If the number passes
the check, Meridian Mail uses the number to call the remote
AMIS system so that AMIS Networking messages can be
delivered to the system.
If the number fails the check (that is, it is restricted and
Meridian Mail cannot dial the number), the AMIS message will
not be delivered and a Non-Delivery Notification (NDN) will
be sent to the sender of the message.
External CLID
In External CLID, the translated number is used for
• call sender
The user places a call to the number.
• announcing the sender’s number
In the message header, or when the user uses call sender, or
call reply.
When the user listens to a message from an external caller, the
user will hear
• “From phone number: <digits>”
where “digits” is the translated number
