Brian, 3-4 years ago, Paul was instrumental in helping me setup phantom extensions with message waiting lights on a DSS console. I've got 50+ teachers at a K-12 school, each with their own voice mail box (plus a dozen DPTs for staff). Here are the key elements, as I recall:
1) Assign an unused real extension to a phantom extension 2) Setup a mailbox on the TVS 4) [As Charles pointed out, very important:] ensure "all calls transfer to mailbox" is set to NO on the TVS 3) Assign a MWL on a DSS, and/or DPT if you've got the spare button In order to come up with 50+ extension numbers, I chose to reassign the numbering scheme to use 21xx/22xx for real extensions, 2288 for the TVS access, 25xx for the phantom extensions, and 27xx for some special mailboxes .......but that's another story! ~~~~Joe _________________________________________________________________ KX-T Mailing list --- http://kxthelp.com/ Subscription changes: http://kxthelp.com/mailman/listinfo/kxt
