ABSTRACT:
An improved voicemail system (101) that allows a message waiting indicator to be forwarded to a remote location is disclosed. The voicemail system (101) includes a voice mail controller (103), a home location (105), and a remote location (109). A user of the voicemail system (101) is assigned a home location (105) for the reception of calls and deposition of voice messages. The user can configure the voice mail controller (103) to forward a message waiting indicator to the remote location (107) when a message is left. The voice mail controller (103) stores a table (401) that indicates the location to which a message waiting indicator should be forwarded to for each user of the voicemail system (101).
