Sounds like you haven't placed the viocemail answering ports in hunt group 7(#505) remember that on a partner mail vs that the ports go in reverse.

That doesn't sound good at all. I would first try powering down the system and waiting about 15 seconds or so before powering back up. If the problem remains, the processor was some how damagedand would be best if it was looked at by your vendor.

On extension 10 or 11 press Feature 00
Left intercom, left intercom, right intercom
Enter your extension number
Press line buttons until its a fast blink and display say no ring
Feature 00

only transfered calls will ring

Since you're asking this question in the Partner 18 category, I'm guessing it's a Partner phone.

1. Transfer from a system phone is done by pressing the TRANSFER button and either dialing the 2 digit extension or the DSS button programmed for that phone.

2. Transfer from a single line phone is by flashing the hookswitch (FLASH) button and dialing the 2 digit extension.

3. Transfer into voice mail is done by programming a button or pressing FEATURE 14 and the 2 digit extension.

You are talking the auto attendant that picks up when someone calls in to the system and no one answers?

Which model voicemail is it. It will TELL you when you dial in to check your voicemail, ...."Welcome to Partner messaging" or welcome to partner mail" or "welcome to Partner voice messaging"

Feature 00
LEFT Intercom twice
#209
enter the line number (01, 02, 03, 04, etc)
Press the Keypad for the ring style you want (1-8)

Feature 00 when done.

If this does not work, your release of Partner system is too old....
