Mailbox Breakout Settings

Callers hearing a user's mailbox greeting can be allowed to dial a key sequence in order to be transferred to another number rather than leave a message. For example, they can be prompted to "Dial 0 to be transferred to the Sales team." This is called mailbox breakout.

For each user, you can configure 3 breakout numbers, triggered by caller's dialing the appropriate digits during the mailbox greeting. Those digits are 0, 2 or 3. The destination numbers for the transfer must be internal.

•Important
If you change a user's mailbox breakout settings, remember to inform the user so that they can change their recorded mailbox greeting
