We have an office that wants to be able to leave greetings for callers but doesn't want the caller to be able to leave messages.
How do I do this?
Thank you!

Hi Brett,
What voicemail system are you running?
Cheers!

Unity Connection. We have only had this Cisco system for 2 weeks and I have alot to learn.

Hi Brett,
No worries my friend, we all have alot to learn but
that's what makes CSC so great
There are a couple of ways to do this;
You can change the "After Greeting" action on the user Greeting page to either
Hang-up or Say Goodbye.
You can get the users to record their Alternate Greeting and then set the "Block Messages"
on the user greeting when Alternate Greeting is recorded.
Cheers!

I'm glad I hit refresh before I posted my reply! Plus 5 should always go to Rob!
I'll add my tuppence worths to Rob's reply:
You will want to eventually set up a call handler to do this for you, simply because a user vm box consumes a license and a call handler doesn't.
