What Is Unified Messaging for IMAP?


With Unified Messaging for IMAP, subscribers can manage voice, fax, and email
messages using the email client of any IMAP-compliant email server. Unified Messaging
accomplishes this by enhancing the email client so that it can support voice and fax
messages in addition to email messages. The concept of managing voice, fax, and
email messages within a single application program is known as unified messaging.

Unified Messaging for IMAP stores all voice and fax messages on the email server along
with email messages. As each voice and fax message is received, it is automatically
moved from the Messaging Voice Mail server to the email server, where it is accessible
as a voice or fax message attachment. Because the messages are stored on the email
server, Unified Messaging for IMAP is sometimes referred to as server-based unified
messaging.

Unified Messaging for IMAP Features


In addition to supporting standard Messaging Voice Mail features over the telephone,
Unified Messaging offers a number of additional features:

• Lets subscribers manage voice and fax messages, using the email client of any
IMAP-compliant email server.
• Allows subscribers to view fax messages and to forward them as email message
attachments.
• Enables subscribers to listen to voice messages over a computer multimedia sound
system, thus allowing them to use Messaging Voice Mail functions without a
telephone.
• Allows each subscriber to record his name and greetings over a computer
multimedia sound system or telephone, using the Desktop PhoneManager utility in
the Windows Control Panel on the subscriber’s computer.

ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 7

How Unified Messaging Works


With Unified Messaging for IMAP, subscribers have two options for accessing their
messages from the email server’s message store. They can use either the telephone user
interface (TUI) or the graphic user interface (GUI) by using the email client of any
IMAP-compliant email server.

Messaging Voice Mail must be connected to the local area network (LAN) that supports
the site’s email system. The Messaging Voice Mail server and the email server can be in
different domains as long as there is TCP/IP access to the email server. The LAN allows
Messaging Voice Mail and the email system to communicate using IMAP and Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), protocols that allow other programs to communicate
with the email system. The relationship of the Messaging Voice Mail server to the site’s
email system and LAN is illustrated on the next page.

The heart of any email system is the email server, which tracks all the messages in the
system. As messages are added and deleted, the email software updates its post office
database.

Email Access, running on the Messaging Voice Mail server, communicates with the
email server. When a subscriber has immediate message notification enabled, Email
Access polls the email server each time the subscriber logs on to his mailbox and
periodically thereafter. If email messages are present in the subscriber’s mailbox, Email
Access generates an appropriate message to notify the subscriber.

Email Access and Unified Messaging for IMAP


Email Access is an advanced feature of Messaging Voice Mail. Unified Messaging
functions discussed in this book depend on the proper installation of Email Access on
the Messaging Voice Mail server and email servers. All of the requirements for Email
Access apply equally to Unified Messaging for IMAP. Email Access must be functioning
before you can begin configuring Unified Messaging for IMAP.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 9

NOTE For Email Access to function, all email messages must be stored on the
email server. Email Access cannot access email messages that are stored on the
subscriber’s workstation.

TUI Message Access


With TUI access, subscribers can manage their email messages by telephone using
Messaging Voice Mail telephone commands. They begin this process by logging into
the Messaging Voice Mail server, which then checks their accounts on the email server
and enumerates their messages. Messaging Voice Mail presents messages so that the
subscribers can retrieve their information in the easiest way possible over the
telephone.

• Voice messages are played back directly.


• Email messages are read aloud using text-to-speech capabilities, starting with
information about the email messages’ subjects and senders. The email messages
must be in plain-text format to be read over the TUI.
• Fax messages are announced as such with their delivery dates, delivery times, and
page counts, as well as the sender’s name if the sender was another subscriber. The
subscriber must send the fax message to a fax machine for printing to view it.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 10

To improve message handling, subscribers can set Messaging Voice Mail to present
messages by type (voice, email, or fax), allowing them to access specific types of
messages quickly.

Message access through the TUI does not support inputting text or fax messages; it
only supports voice forwards and replies to email messages.

TUI access offers the following features:

• Subscribers are notified when they have received email messages and are told the
number received while they are logged on to their mailboxes.
• Subscribers can set the Immediate Message Notification feature of Messaging Voice
Mail to notify them when new email messages arrive. If this feature is set, Messaging
Voice Mail calls subscribers at specified telephone numbers to notify them of new
messages.
• Subscribers are informed of the time when each email message was sent. Depending
on what “envelope” information is available, Messaging Voice Mail can also report
the message’s subject and read or play the sender’s name.
• Subscribers can listen to their plain-text email messages, if the text-to-speech feature
is enabled for them. This feature allows Messaging Voice Mail to “read aloud” the
content of an email message, speaking each message’s subject, body, and any text-
based attachments using synthesized speech.
• Subscribers can forward email messages to other server-based unified messaging
users, enabling them to distribute information quickly with a few keypresses.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 11

• Subscribers can reply to an email message by recording a voice reply that will be
sent to the original email sender as an attached .wav file.
• When RightFax is installed at the site, subscribers can forward email messages by fax
and print email messages on any fax machine. In addition, text file attachments
(with a .cmd, .bat, or .txt extension) can be printed (rendered) on a fax machine as
well, as can binary file attachments from such popular application programs as
Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
• Messaging Voice Mail administrators can grant individual Email Access privileges to
subscribers, such as allowing a subscriber to listen to email messages through the
TUI.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 12

GUI Message Access


During the installation of the Unified Messaging software, the email client is enhanced
to support voice and fax messages as follows:

• Identifies Messaging Voice Mail messages as such in the subject line.


• Includes an optional media player. The Messaging Voice Mail Media Player includes
media player controls that support the playback of voice message attachments. The
subscriber can select either the computer sound device (if present) or telephone for
playback.
• Allows subscribers to listen to voice messages over a computer sound device (such as
a PC sound card), allowing them to use Messaging Voice Mail functions without a
telephone.
• Allows subscribers to record their name and greetings over a computer sound device
or a telephone.
• Allows subscribers to set call blocking, call screening, and Extension Specific
Processing (ESP), if those features are allowed for them.
• Installs a fax viewer as part of the RightFax installation.

At the subscriber’s discretion, any message can be forwarded or answered using the
email client.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 13

Message Enumeration
Both the user’s Inbox and Saved folder can be enumerated and the content of the
email messages read aloud. Messaging Voice Mail enumerates and reads aloud any
message found in the user’s Inbox or Saved folders. It considers all unread messages in
the Inbox folder to be new messages when it plays them back using the TUI. All
messages in the Saved folder are considered to be saved when they are accessed using
the TUI.

When using the GUI, if a subscriber moves a message of any type to a folder other than
the Saved or Inbox folder, Messaging Voice Mail is no longer able to access that
message.

Forward
All messages can be forwarded.

Delete
Messages are marked for deletion in Messaging Voice Mail, but are not deleted in the
email mailbox until the subscriber logs off from Messaging Voice Mail. Email Access
logs off from the subscriber’s email mailbox and the email server moves the marked
message to the Deleted Items folder. The deleted messages remain in the Deleted Items
folder until the subscriber empties it.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 14

Save
If the subscriber uses the TUI to read any message (voice, fax, or email) and then saves
that message, Messaging Voice Mail considers the message saved and moves it to the
Saved folder. Email Access informs the subscriber that the message is saved. If a folder
called Saved does not exist, Email Access will create it when the first message is saved.

The TUI considers unread messages in the Inbox as new. Messages are considered
saved if they are in the Saved folder, regardless of whether or not they have been read.
If a message has been viewed or played but not saved, the TUI groups it with previously
read new messages.

Text-to-Speech Rendering
The From line, Subject line, and body of all email messages in the Inbox and Saved
folders can be read aloud using the text-to-speech feature. Email messages in other
folders cannot be found by Email Access. Text file attachments (with a .cmd, .bat, or
.txt extension) to email messages can also be read aloud.

Message Notification
Subscribers are notified of normal- and urgent-priority email messages, provided that
normal- and urgent-priority message notification is configured for the subscriber.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 15

Replying to Messages
When a subscriber replies by email to a voice or fax message, the original message is
not included in the reply. Instead, the subscriber uses the email client’s regular reply
function. This allows the creation of a standard email reply.

Forwarding Messages
A voice or fax message may be forwarded as an email message.

If the subscriber chooses to forward the message with the email client’s standard
forwarding function, a new mail message appears with one or two file attachments
(a.uma file for a voice message or a .tif file for a fax). The subscriber may type text in
the message or attach other files.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 16

Binary-to-Fax Email Attachment Rendering Support


Messaging Voice Mail supports the Server-Side Application (SSA) conversion engine
used by RightFax versions 9.0, 8.5, and 8.0. This support allows a subscriber using the
TUI to forward an email message with a binary file attachment, such as a Microsoft
Word document, to any fax machine and get printouts of the email message and
binary attachments. Subscribers can print out binary file attachments in the file formats
used by the following programs:

• Microsoft Word 2000 or Word 2002


• Microsoft Excel 2000 or Excel 2002
• Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 or PowerPoint 2002
• Visio 2000
• Lotus WordPro, release 9

IMPORTANT The SSA feature is not supported on the same platform as


Messaging Voice Mail. SSA requires the installation of Microsoft Office products,
such as Word and Excel, which are not allowed on the Messaging Voice Mail
platform.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 17

The SSA conversion engine can also use the previously mentioned application
programs to render binary file attachments from other application programs
on any fax machine. For a complete list of file attachment formats that can
be rendered using the SSA conversion engine and information about configuring the
feature on the fax server, refer to the RightFax documentation.

IMPORTANT If RightFax version 8.0 or later is installed on the fax server


platform, subscribers must use fax delivery mailboxes set up for callback delivery
to retrieve email attachments. For more information about fax delivery mailboxes,
see the Fax Messaging Online Book.

Critical Application Issues for Messaging Voice Mail


Administrators
Messaging Voice Mail administrators should be aware of the following critical
application issues concerning Unified Messaging for IMAP:

• Activity when the unified message store is unavailable


• Time synchronization between servers

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 19

Activity When the Unified Message Store Is Unavailable


If, for some reason, the email server is unavailable to the Messaging Voice Mail system,
incoming voice or fax messages are saved to individual Messaging Voice Mail
subscriber mailboxes. During this period of interrupted communication between the
servers, subscribers can use the TUI to log on to Messaging Voice Mail and check for
messages that have been received during the period of broken communication. Any
Messaging Voice Mail messages already moved to the email server’s unified message
store will be unavailable from the TUI until communication between the servers is
restored. If the email server is functioning during this period of broken communication,
subscribers may access their voice and fax messages stored on the email server using an
email client. Voice messages residing on the Messaging Voice Mail server will be
unavailable through the email client. Once the two servers restore communication, the
Messaging Voice Mail server will move new messages still residing on it to the email
server and all messages will be available through the TUI or email client.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 20

Time Synchronization Between Servers


It is critical that the time settings on the Messaging Voice Mail server match the time and
time zone settings on the email server. You can match these time settings by using a
time synchronization program that automatically updates the time on both servers or by
manually updating them.

If the times on the two servers drift apart from each other, then a new message that is
sent from the Messaging Voice Mail server to the email server may appear to be a future
delivery message. If this occurs, then either the message may not appear in the email
client program right away or it may not be counted as a message in the mailbox when a
subscriber accesses the mailbox through the TUI until the future delivery time has
arrived. Time differences between the Messaging Voice Mail server and the email server
can cause a disparity between the messages displayed in the email client and the
messages available in the TUI.

If you are using Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 Server, we recommend that you use
the Windows Time service to synchronize the time between the Messaging Voice Mail
server and the email server. Windows Time is a Windows background service that can be
configured to check the time on the email server, or on any other Windows Server on
the network, and reset the time on the Messaging Voice Mail server to match it. For
additional information about using Windows Time, refer to the appropriate Microsoft
Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 Server documentation.

Configuring a Workstation for Use with Unified Messaging


for IMAP
Installing the Unified Messaging client creates a Desktop PhoneManager utility in the
Windows Control Panel and places an online help file in the Messaging Voice Mail
Desktop program group.

Within the Desktop PhoneManager utility in Control Panel, subscribers can configure
their connection to the Messaging Voice Mail server through the Desktop
PhoneManager dialog box. This connection must be configured before subscribers can
access the Messaging Voice Mail server to generate voice messages, and retrieve voice
and fax messages in your email client. For specific information on using Desktop
PhoneManager, see the Messaging Voice Mail Unified Messaging client online help.

Because installing the client on each subscriber‘s desktop is a large task, there are three
methods available: push, pull, and direct.

The push method installs the client software on one or more workstations at the
initiation of an administrator. While the workstations must be logged on to the server,
no subscriber presence or action is required.

The pull method distributes a link to one or more workstations so that the subscriber
can initiate an installation of client software from a network source. The administrator
need only setup a default subscriber profile before distributing the link.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 38

Both the push and pull methods can be managed through command line prompts or
through third-party software. For more information on the command line prompts and
the corresponding switches, see page 75.

The third method, direct, is accomplished by installing the client software from the
Ericsson MX-ONE Messaging Voice Mail DVD at the subscriber workstation. This
method is useful for the addition of single subscribers or for remote subscribers who do
not have LAN or internet connections.

ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 39

Installing the Unified Messaging Client on a LAN File Server

IMPORTANT If you plan to install the Unified Messaging client using the
push or pull methods, the client software must first be installed to a LAN file
server prior to setting up each workstation.

Installing the Unified Messaging client software on a LAN file server requires an
Administration Setup. Performing an Administration Setup copies the necessary
software components of the Unified Messaging client to a shared directory on the LAN
file server and creates a default subscriber profile. This client and profile can then be
pushed to client workstations, or subscribers can pull from this shared location and run
Setup to install the Unified Messaging client to their local hard disk drives.

IMPORTANT Do not perform an Administration Setup to the Messaging


Voice Mail server. Using the Messaging Voice Mail server as a LAN file server
can increase its vulnerability to viruses and negatively affect overall system
performance.

Using AT_EMA

IMPORTANT Use of the AT_EMA command disables the Email Access


application for all messaging server profiles. We recommend that you disable
individual messaging server profiles immediately or configure the messaging
server profile to disable the Email Access interface for the time when system
maintenance occurs on the email server, instead of using the AT_EMA
command.

that switches Email Access on and off on the Messaging Voice Mail server. When the
Email Access is switched off, its features are disabled for all subscribers. Because
AT_EMA is a command-line utility, it can be added to email server maintenance batch
files or scripts.

AT_EMA.exe is installed during Messaging Voice Mail installation and is located in the
\CX\Bin directory on the Messaging Voice Mail server.

AT_EMA.exe can be run from the local hard disk drive of either the Messaging Voice
Mail server or the email server. If AT_EMA is run from the email server, it must be
installed locally and the NetBEUI protocol must be installed on both the Messaging
Voice Mail server and the email server. (NetBEUI is not required if AT_EMA is run from
the Messaging Voice Mail server.)

Appendix C: Troubleshooting Email Access After Setup


When encountering a problem with the Email Access application after setup, always
check the Windows Server Event Viewer log before taking any action. It may provide
information that will help you isolate the problem.
Review the following items if you have problems after the configuration of Email
Access:
• If the subscriber states that his email mailbox contains email messages that he has
previously deleted using the TUI, verify that the subscriber is logging off his
subscriber mailbox correctly.
• Verify that the Email Access Active check box is selected (checked) on the
Messaging tab of the System Configuration dialog box in Messaging Voice Mail
Administration.
• Verify that the Message Storage Location option on the Email tab of the
subscriber’s mailbox is set to External.
• Verify that the Server Profile and user information on the Email tab of the subscriber’s
mailbox are configured correctly.
• Verify that the LAN adapter card is properly configured with the correct network
protocols to communicate with the email server.

Appendix D: Client Installation Command Line and


Switch Information
There are several ways to do a user install from a network share. Two major categories
of user install are push install and pull install.

PUSH INSTALL: Someone other than the user initiates the user install. The install can
be either attended or unattended, but the user’s computer must be on and connected
to the network. Both attended and unattended push installs rely on third-party push-
installation software packages, all of which allow you to enter the name of an
executable with command line arguments to be run on the client machine.

Below is an example of what you could enter to do an attended push install for a
subscriber with mailbox of 1234 and extension 1234. All other install values would
come from Admin.ini, which was created during the administrator install.

Executable: setup.exe

Command line arguments: -vAdmin.ini –b1234 –u1234

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 76

The following example shows typical command-line syntax for an unattended push
install supporting a subscriber with a mailbox of 1234 and extension 1234. All other
install values come from the file Admin.ini, which was created during the administrator
install. For an unattended push install (also called a silent install), you must include the
–s switch and provide a response file. This file is created for you by the administrator
setup and is always called Setup.iss in that context; for other setups, you can use the -f1
switch to rename the response file. The –s for silent must always appear as the last
argument on the command line.

Executable: setup.exe

Command line arguments: -vAdmin.ini –b1234 –u1234 –f1setup.iss -s

NOTE In both of the attended and unattended installs you could omit the –b1234
and -u1234 arguments to make the install work for a group of users. The install for
each user would complete; however, Unified Messaging would not be usable until
each user went into the control panel applet and entered his or her mailbox and
extension numbers.

ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 77

PULL INSTALL: The user initiates this install by clicking a shortcut or otherwise
running setup.exe from his or her machine. This type of install is always attended
because the user must be present to initiate it.

To do a pull install for a group of users the administrator must distribute a copy of UM
Install.lnk to each user in the group. This file is created as part of the administrator
install and located on the network share with the other install files. The administrator
could attach the shortcut file to an email message, which is sent to all users in the
group. Or the shortcut file could be pushed to the desktops of all users in the group,
using whatever push software the customer has. This allows each user to perform the
install when he is ready.

The shortcut file above invokes setup.exe with –vAdmin.ini where Admin.ini is the name
of the file created in the administrator setup. In all of the above-mentioned installs you
can omit the –v argument and enter some or all of the administrator parameters as
command line arguments.

Below is a table of valid command line arguments for push and pull installs.

Argument Description

-? Displays usage dialog showing command line parameters and values.

-a Performs an administrator install. When this switch is specified, the setup file is
created in the same directory that contains the file Admin.ini.
This switch should not be used with the -s or -r switches.

-b Mailbox. For example, –b1234 where your mailbox is 1234.

-h Server name. For example –hONEBOX1 where your telephony server is


ONEBOX1.

-I Record device. Values are s for sound card and t for telephone.

-j Playback device. Values are s for sound card and t for telephone.

-k Is an install OKI driver override. Values are y for Yes and n for No.

-l Auto-play setting. Values are a for Always, u for New/Unread and n for Never.

-n Record Message Format. Values are m for Mu-Law, a for A-Law, p for Linear
PCM, d for OKI ADPCM, and g for GSM 610.

-o Override personal settings always. Values are y for Yes and n for No.

-p Protocol. Values are t for TCP/IP and n for Named Pipes.

-u Extension. For example –u1234 where your extension is 1234.

-v Administrator parameter file name. For example: –vAdmin.ini (the default). This
switch cannot be used to set the path where the file resides.

EN/LZT 108 5828/16 R2A, 4.10: September 2005


ONLINE BOOK: Unified Messaging for IMAP 79

Argument Description

-w Record Non Message Format. Values are m for Mu-Law, a for A-Law, p for Linear
PCM, d for OKI ADPCM, and g for GSM 610.

-y Client Install Path. For example –yc:\Program Files\UM.

-s Silent install. This should appear as the last command line argument.

-f1 Full path to the response file, optionally including the filename. The response
file is required for silent installs. A default response file is created for you during
the administrator install and is always called setup.iss.

-r Record a new response file. For example, setup –r will go through a user install
and record all user interactions into a response file called setup.iss, which will be
located in the Windows directory.

The following sample command line assumes the name of your telephony server is
ONEBOX1 and you are using TCP/IP for your protocol. Your mailbox and extension are
1234. You want your playback and record devices to be the telephone. You want to
auto play all new or unread messages. The record message and record nonmessage
formats are µ-Law and the default client install path is c:\UM.

Setup –hONEBOX1 –b1234 –pT –u1234 –iT –jT –kN –lU –nM –wM –yc:\UM
