About this task

By default, callers to your mailbox hear the default system greeting. You can replace this with a personal greeting.

You can record the greeting heard by callers to your voicemail. At any time, you can listen to a greeting message and re-record it.

A greeting must be longer than 3 seconds. The maximum length of a greeting is 120 seconds by default.
