Resolution

If you have not yet set it up yet, you will need to create a passcode for use with your voicemail.

Setup a New Passcode for First Time Use

  1. Press the Voicemail envelope button on your desk phone.
    1. If setting up a greeting for another mailbox (such as department mailbox), enter *17 instead. When prompted, enter the extension of the mailbox you wish to set up. The initial passcode will be #.
  2. Set your new Voicemail passcode. The passcode must be at least six digits.
    1. If you are unable to set your Voicemail passcode or you need further assistance, use our Voicemail Password Reset service.
