Use the Unified Messaging (UM) mailbox policy Message Text tab to configure message text settings for users who are associated with a UM mailbox policy. For example, you can specify the e-mail message text that is sent to a user after they reset their UM PIN or the e-mail message text that is included when a user receives a fax message in their Inbox.

Use this tab to configure the following settings:
