Cisco Unity Mailbox Size Quota
The Cisco Unity voice mailbox quota is 50MB.
The Cisco Unity Voicemail Server notifies users by email when their voice mailbox is nearing (or exceeds) the 50MB storage limit. If you need assistance in accessing the Cisco Unity voicemail mailbox to delete messages, and free up space in your mailbox, contact Support listed below for assistance. However, please note that deleting messages on your phone, will automatically remove them from the Cisco Unity Connection Web inbox.
If the mailbox is still over quota after 30 days, the voice mailbox will be removed, voicemail configurations will be modified, and the monthly charge will end at that time.
If the user contacts Support to have the voice mailbox rebuilt after it has been removed, the department ID manager or proxy will need to submit a request to install a new voice mailbox. One-time charges will apply.
