Setting up voice mail for the first time
Before you can use your voice mail, you must set it up.
Before you Begin
Voice mail is a service associated with office phones on campus. Before you can use voice mail on a new phone installation, it must be configured by Telecommunications & Networking. Afterward, you should set up your voice mail by providing a recorded name and personal greeting.
By default, your voice mail security code is 0000. When you set up your voice mail, you will be prompted to change it to something personal and secret.
For more information about ordering new phone service, please visit the Telecommunications & Networking website.
