All you need to do to unlock the mailbox is to reset the password. If you're having no luck, it's because you're resetting the wrong mailbox. Make sure the mailbox you're resetting is actually assigned to the proper extension.
Usually, the reception mailbox is mailbox 100, regardless of what the actual extension number is.

My Nortel phone NT8B27JAAE6 has locked me out of the voicemail. Can you tell me how to reset it???? Thanks Agatha

Feature 983 log in is 120000 (if 2 digit extension, 1020000 if 3 digit, 10020000 if 4 digit extensions)
Select Mbox, enter that locked extensions mail box number, You will see password RESET. Select RESET. Release out. This will reset that mail box password to 0000. Use feature 981 on that phone and enter the new default password of 0000. you will then be prompted to change the password.



Feature 985 will show you the extension of the line you are using.

We have a Nortel Networks system T7316. One phone has the mailbox locked out and says contact admin. I have tried the 120000 code and it is invalid. What else can I try?

So in other words, try 1020000, 10020000, 120000

I forgot my code and misplaced the overidde keyto my hardline digital safe. It is not my main every day safe but I use it as a hidden back up.

Most of the time if you contact the manufacture on these types of safes they can help you through a reset or they can send out a key in the mail to you. I had a problem like this with another brand and they were able to send out a replacement. Good luck.
