SYMPTOMS

When a caller attempts to leave a message for you in Microsoft Call Manager, they may be unable to choose a mailbox in which to leave the message even if you have configured multiple mailboxes.

  3. Right-click the caller for whom you want to record a greeting.
  4. Click Private Greeting.
  5. Click Record, and then speak into the microphone.

  7. Click OK.
