Defining remote email users

If your subscribers will be frequently sending messages to remote email users or to other email addresses, such as email lists, you can permanently define these email addresses in your local machine. This way, your subscribers can address messages to these email addresses using their telephones.

To define a remote email address to the system:

1. Start at the Messaging Administration main menu and select:

Global Administration
     Subscriber Management

The system displays the Managing Subscribers page.

Note: If you are accessing the system through a dial-up connection and you have a large number of remote subscribers administered on your system, you might want to filter subscribers to reduce the number of subscribers that display on the Manage Remote Subscribers page. Doing this allows the page to download more quickly. See Sorting and filtering remote subscribers for information about filtering subscribers.

2. Click Manage in the Remote Subscribers row for the specific trusted server or remote machine to which the remote email user is to be added. If the remote email user does not have a mailbox on a remote machine, or if you do not see the remote email user's machine listed, click Manage in the Remote Subscribers row for Internet.

   The system displays the Managing Remote Subscribers page for the specific remote system.

3. Click Add a New Subscriber.

4. Complete the fields on the page as necessary. For more information, click the field names or Help on the web-based administration page.

   Note: The address that you enter in the Numeric Address field is the address that local subscribers will use to send messages to the added remote subscriber if they use the telephone user interface (TUI) to send messages.

5. Click Save.

   The system saves the remote subscriber data and returns to the Manage Remote Subscribers page

6. If you are finished administering remote email users, click Return to Main.
