You can enable or disable missed call notifications for a Unified Messaging (UM) mailbox policy in Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. A missed call notification is an e-mail message that's sent to a user's mailbox when the user doesn't answer an incoming call. This is a different e-mail message than the e-mail message that contains the voice message that's left for a user.

When you disable missed call notifications on a UM mailbox policy, you prevent all users associated with the UM mailbox policy from receiving an e-mail message when they don't answer an incoming call. By default, missed call notifications are enabled with each UM mailbox policy that's created.

Note:
By default, a UM mailbox policy is created every time you create a UM dial plan.
