Updating the Password in ViewMail for Notes to Match Your Cisco PCA Password
ViewMail for Notes uses your Cisco Unity Connection username and Cisco Personal Communications Assistant (PCA) password to access your Connection account to retrieve voice messages. You must update the password in ViewMail for Notes when you change your Cisco PCA password in the Messaging Assistant web tool. This ensures that ViewMail can continue to access your Connection account.
If you are having trouble sending or receiving voice messages in ViewMail for Notes, consider the following tips:
•
If Notes prompts you for a password but does not accept it, your Cisco PCA password may have expired or changed, or it may be locked. Change your Cisco PCA password in the Messaging Assistant first, then update the password in ViewMail for Notes.
•
If you receive an error when you attempt to play or record messages in ViewMail for Notes by using the phone, your Cisco PCA password may have expired or changed, or it may be locked. Change your Cisco PCA password in the Messaging Assistant first, then update it in ViewMail.
