TELEPHONY ADMINISTRATION: You can access anyone's voicemail via admin rights and if that person was the admin, then you can contact either the vendor that sold you the unit to either come out and show you (this may cost you if your equipment contract is out) or contact Nortel directly for support via phone or email. I was the telephony admin and I created the tree, etc. as well as knew my system in and out as I researched all the systems on the market at the time, negotiated the contract, and was in charge of implementation as well as management of all aspects of office equipment after the fact. I always had a vehicle to access terminated employee's voicemail accounts. Good luck!
