What can EVM do?

• Deliver via email or SMS (text message) a notification that a voice message has arrived in your campus voicemail box.
• Optionally, deliver the voice message itself to up to three email addresses of your choice as a file attachment (.GSM or .MP3). You can then listen to it on any computer where you can check your email.
• Allow you to store delivered voice messages in your email folders using your existing hierarchy/categorization system.
• Allow you to delete the message from your campus voicemail box using a Web interface.
  
  Note: Additional fees may appear on your cellular phone bill for EVM notification text-messages and EVM sound file data transfer. Please check with your cellular service provider for details about text-messaging and data transfer charges before enabling these features.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I reset my Voicemail Password OR my EVM PIN?
  To reset your EVM PIN, please Contact your ATR.



• How do I configure EVM to send text notification messages to my cellphone?
  Please refer to pages 8 and 9 of the EVM User Guide. You may need to dial 611 on your cellular phone and ask your cellular service provider for the correct email format for text messaging.



• What is the difference between .GSM and .MP3 file types?
  .GSM and .MP3 files are both audio (sound) files that can be played in a media player such as Windows Media Player or Apple Quick Time. A GSM file is a compressed .wav file, and is smaller than an MP3 file. GSM is the preferred format because it will take up less space in your email inbox/smart-phone memory.



• Why was the attached GSM or MP3 file removed from my EVM email?
  Contact your system's administrator. Depending upon your department's email server configuration, certain file type attachments may be automatically blocked from your email.



• Will sound files delivered by EVM play on my smart-phone?
  
  • iPhones will play MP3 files, but do not appear to support the GSM file type.
  • BlackBerry devices may support MP3 and GSM (compressed .wav) file types. Compatibility depends on the version of the BlackBerry on the device.
  • Other Smart-Phone devices may play MP3 and GSM files, depending on the version of Windows Mobile or Smart-Phone OS.
• Can I configure EVM to send messages to a listserve or email distribution list?
  Yes. EVM will deliver messages to any email address, including listserves and email distribution lists.



• Will I be charged for text messages sent to my cellphone by EVM?
  It is best to check with your cellular service provider. Unless you subscribe to a "bundled text-messaging plan", additional charges may appear on your cellular phone bill for text-messaging. Again, it is best to check with your cellular provider for details about text-messaging charges before enabling this feature.



• Will I be charged for downloading sound files sent to my cellular "smart-phone" by EVM?
  It is best to check with your cellular service provider.

Again, it is best to check with your cellular provider for details about data transfer charges before enabling this feature.



• When will Caller ID information be included in EVM messages? Caller ID functionality will be rolled out in two phases.
  • Phase 1: Name and phone number Caller ID information will appear on messages from campus phones with a campus voicemail account. Only phone number information will appear campus phones without a campus voicemail account. Caller ID blocking will be enforced by EVM.
  • Phase 2: Name and phone number Caller ID information will appear on messages from all campus phones. Caller ID blocking will continue to be enforced by EVM.
• Can I reply to the person who left me the voicemail by replying to the email? No. Replying to the EVM email will not go to the person who left you a voicemail.



• How do I find out my default EVM PIN?
  The default PIN to log into the EVM Settings Page is 1234.
