Voicemail Compression
Formats of Voicemail files
In this section, we will describe how Voicemail files can be compressed (generally or according to user-specific entries).
As default, voicemail attachments are sent as WAV files (Microsoft Wave Audio GSM). Alternatively, it is possible to use other implemented or user-defined compressions in order to reduce the size of the attachments. The compression to be used can be configured globally, i.e. for all users, or individually for each user. The following settings are possible:
