Thanks

Hi Jeff,

JL:-->//IMAP is needed only to fetch email messages from a remote store for access over the phone//

Are you saying we dont need to buy an IMAP license for email clients to recieve voicemails with wav attachments from Unity connection?

Can you please explain what this license provides?

//One IMAP Client Access user license UNITYCN1-CL-USR //

thanks

Allan

The IMAP client lets you get at messages in a remote mailstore via the phone conversation on Unity (i.e. Unity fetches email messages from an off box mail account you configure access for).

Hi Jeff,

We are going to be purchasing Unity Connection in the near future and this question regarding IMAP client access has been bugging us as well. The Connection documentation seems to indicate that this is a licensed feature.Can you please clarify this;

The Cisco PCA website provides access to the web tools that users use to manage messages and personal preferences with Cisco Unity Connection.** Note that IMAP client access to Connection voice messages is a licensed feature.**

To Enable IMAP Client Access to Voice Messages in Applicable Classes of Service

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1 In Cisco Unity Connection Administration, expand Class of Service, then click Class of Service.

Step 2 On the Search Class of Service page, in the Search Results table, click the display name of the applicable class of service.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note If the class of service does not appear in the search results table, set the applicable parameters in the search fields at the top of the page, and click Find.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 3 On the Edit Class of Service page, under **Licensed Features**, check the Allow Users to Access Voice Mail Using an IMAP Client check box.

Step 4 Choose one of the following options:

Allow Users to Access Message Bodies?Users have access to the entire voice mail.

Allow Users to Access Message Bodies Except on Private Messages?Users have access to the entire voice mail, unless the message is marked private, in which case they will have access only to the message header.

Allow Users to Access Message Headers Only?Users have access only to message headers.

Step 5 Click Save.

Thanks for all your great help!

First, you should be having this chat with your account team, the forum is not really your licensing questions kinda place.

Next, I think folks are confused as to what was meant by SMTP notification. This is NOT sending voicemail messages to remote systems or allowing you access to our message store via an IMAP client. That is, indeed, a licensed feature.

SMTP notification is just a notification when a message arrives that matches criteria you st up (message type, schedule, urgency...). This is not a mechansim to setup access to voice messages from other systems using Connection as a gateway or the like.

If you wish to use IMAP to get at Connection voice mail messages from off box you must pay a license for that. This is not free. If all you want to do is get an email notification via SMTP that a message has arrived for you, this does not require a license.

The SMTP notification is not setup to incude the actual message as part of the "notfication" - it's not a forwarding mechansim.

Thanks for the clarification Jeff

Cisco may want to think about setting up a licensing forum as its extremely hard to find information on different licensing.

If I Search CCO for Unity connection licensing nothing relevant comes back.

http://cisco.com/pcgi-bin/search/search.pl?searchPhrase=unity+connection+licensing&nv=Search+All+cisco.com%23%23cisco.com&language=en&country=US&accessLevel=Guest&tabIndexControler=&x=0&y=0

I spent hours on CCO before I found a PDF on a link from the steps to success site that explained the UC licening see attached.

Also look at a typical BOM below if you search for a product code on CCO for an explanation of what it provides you get nothing back 0 zilch. Why so many types of support are required i dont know surely Cisco could have just 1 sw support part number that covers you.

16-24 port one needs support contract then 24-48 yep another support contract its crazy and complex.

Hey Alan.

No argument on the complexity of the part numbers and such - we're mostly just engineering folks out here trying to answer technical questions and have no more insight into the part number and ordering details than anyone else (I make a practice of never going anywhere near such questions since I'm completely ignorant of the details myself).

The standard answer is the account teams are the respository this type of information - but if some of them wanted to monitor a forum for such questions, I have to think that would be a good thing.

Hi Jeff,

Yes, this type of question should probably be directed elsewhere, my BAD! Thanks for taking the time to set this straight, I think I understand now.

Thanks again and keep up the good work!

Rob

Well quick update. I can successfully email my personal company email, however, the local user email addresses are not reachable.

User at ext 3332 does not received the email notification when callers leave a message. However, if I change the destination email address to my personal emaail account outside their domain connection I get the message. I think this is an exchange/Unity Connections SMTP issue.

i got it working by following the included link and configured the Smart Host configuration in the IIS advanced settings.
