Beta Call Screening
The Call Screening feature lets you know the call is coming from Salesmsg. With Call Screening enabled when you answer the line you'll be informed you are receiving a call from Salesmsg and if you'd like to accept press one.
This is great if you're using your personal cell phone as the forwarding line so you're not caught off guard during personal times.
