We are running MICS with Call Pilot...

There are several extensions set to ring for incoming calls along with
the switchboard operator extension. After 4 rings, if nobody answers
it goes to the voicemail of one of the other extensions and not the
general mailbox. If the switchboard is set to ring twice then it will
go where it should, but if they are all set to transfer to voicemail
after a no answer of 4 rings then the general mailbox gets skipped for
one of the other extensions voicemail. Other than setting the other
extensions to ring more, how can we make the switchboard extensions
take precedence?

Number of rings on other sets must be longer. I usually set 4 rings
for first and 6 rings for other sets.

Right.Thats' the only way. I have trouble getting customers to believe that
their phones can't think.
