University phones may be set to play an alternate greeting during a specific time period when you want to indicate special circumstances, such as when you are on vacation. (For example, 'I will be out of the office until....')
You can disable a greeting at any time. When a greeting is disabled, the voice mail system no longer plays it, although the recording is not erased. Note, only voice mail greeting is available at a time. Enabling an alternate greeting will prevent the standard, closed or holiday greeting from playing.
