How do I find out what my mbox number is, it's not
Each mailbox has the ability to be assigned to a different extension number than the MB #. This makes it very difficult to manage a system when this happens. It will take someone with voice mail programming knowledge to get into the voice mail system to check each mailbox's programming to find it.
Display Message
This only shows on the operator extension. It is there to notify you that a Night or Evening or some other service is turned on. You can press the LIST soft key to find out which service is in effect. You can cancel the service, but then you also cancel the purpose of the service like night ringing or directing some lines straight to voice mail. Feature #871 will cancel ringing service, #872 will cancel restrictions service, and #873 will cancel routing services.

Low microphone volume on M7208
This is a problem
Hmmm, sounds like you may need to replace some equipment. If they are using the handsets, I would replace the handsets first (lots on eBay). Then, if that doesn't fix the problem, try handset cords, then replace the phones. You can also just upgrade your system since these phones are pretty old.
Norstar meridian 7208 won't ring.
Does it ring when you move it to a known ringing port? Is it programmed to ring (Terminals & Sets) Appear and Ring? Do you have Automatic Set Relocation turned on so the extension number stays with the phone?
There are a lot of features to check for ringing, including the volume of the set.
