A voice mail box if set to notify will call the person who owns the box repeatedly. It will loop and call itself as well. The vm extension that shows up on the phone does NOT have to match the number of the box calling because it uses the first available extension in the group. Also if you are using a menu, it will have a timeout that transfers a call to the operator if the caller does not enter any digits. The caller could have hung up but the transfer still happens...sometimes.
