Get notified of new voicemail by email

Faculty and staff can receive an email notification when a new voicemail arrives. Unlike forwarding voicemail to email, no message recording is attached. 

If you prefer, you may request technical staff set up email notifications for you. Provide a description of your request in the Additional Information field. Department mailboxes and those for labs or general access areas are not generally eligible for this feature.
