Accessing Voice Messages from Lotus Sametime Connect
Revised December 15, 2008In Lotus Sametime Connect, voice messages are listed in the Voicemail panel. In this area, you can review new and saved voice messages, play or delete voice messages, select filters to show all or a subset of your voice messages, and sort the list of voice messages by certain criteria.
The status bar at the bottom of the Voicemail panel indicates whether you are successfully connected to access your voice messages. Any error messages appear as hypertext links, which you can click to show information about the errors and how to resolve them.
Checking Voice Messages
Revised December 15, 2008In the message list, new voice messages are shown in bold text with the New Message icon; heard messages are in regular text with the Read Message icon.
The Name column identifies the sender with either the name of a Sametime contact or a phone number if the message was left by someone who is not in your Contacts list. If the sender is a Sametime contact, you see the availability status of the contact and can initiate a Sametime chat.
The message list also shows the date and time that you received the message.
You can click column headings to sort messages by message status, by contact availability, by contact name, and by date and time. You can filter the message list to show all messages, heard messages, unheard messages, and deleted messages by clicking the applicable option in the Show list.
Right-click a message to display a menu of Lotus Sametime Connect and voicemail actions. Actions vary depending on the voice message status (heard, unheard, or deleted) and whether the sender is a Sametime contact or unknown.
