The Messaging Assistant Web Tool

pnaAbout the Messaging Assistant Web Tool

The Messaging Assistant web tool lets you customize how you and your callers interact with Cisco Unity Connection by phone. You can also use it to personalize your Connection settings—including your recorded greetings and message-delivery preferences—and to set up message-notification devices and to create private lists.

Access to the Messaging Assistant is provided through the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant (PCA) website.


Note

The web browser on your computer must be set up to use the Cisco PCA and the Messaging Assistant. Although it is likely that your Connection administrator has already done so for the computer that you use for work, if your organization offers remote access to the Cisco PCA, you must set up the installed browser(s) on any other computer that you plan to use for accessing the website. Ask your Connection administrator for instructions.
