MERLIN Messaging
An integrated module that supports
100 hours of message storage, up to 12 ports in two-port increments,
and a maximum of 200 mailboxes. System administration is performed

MERLIN Messaging Release 2.5 is installed
by adding a circuit module with a port license PCMCIA card
to the MERLIN MAGIX® cabinet. The system supports multiple
automated attendants, bilingual and multilingual modes of
operation, priority or private message features, as well as
personal and system group lists. The latest release provides
customized announcements for customers waiting in a calling
group's queue; telephone display integration of old and new
messages; and supports caller ID. In addition, MERLIN Messaging
now supports a Web browser interface—Avaya www.messenger™
for MERLIN Messaging—a visual interface to voice messages,
which allows users to tell at a glance how many new and old
voice messages they have.
