Tips
- Leaving a copy of the message on the voicemail server is optional. You can go back into your newly created email account to change that setting. It can be handy to have a backup copy. Voicemail is automatically deleted from the voicemail server after 45 days.
- To create a voicemail inbox folder in Outlook, go to the menu, click on File, then New, then Folder. Name it something like "Voicemail Inbox." Pay attention to where you place the folder.
- To create inbox rules for your voicemail, in the Outlook menu select Tools, then Rules and alerts, then New rule. A typical voicemail To field would be similar to this >>>4458@voicemailclient.uwsp.edu<<< use the whole address to identify voicemail to be moved to your voicemail inbox folder.
- When sending an email to a voicemail you must use the POP3 account you just created. To select that account select the second account with your email address on it. (See example below.)
