Voice Mail/EVM

Voice mail and Enabled Voice Mail (EVM) services are available to all University faculty and staff. With voice mail, callers can leave you a message when calling your Princeton University phone.

The EVM add-on service converts your Princeton University voice mail messages to audio files and then sends them to your e-mail Inbox, so you can listen to your voice mail messages from your computer. With EVM, you can also send text notification to your cell phone, so you know when messages have been left for you while away from the office.
