CINDI is a voice messaging system that we have installed at the
college.  However, we do not have phones with "message waiting" lights
on them.  Does anyone know of a mod we could make so that we could add
those lights?  Otherwise, we have to poll CINDI every time we return
to the office!  Yuck!!

Thanks,

[Moderator's Note: Another option might be instead of message-waiting
lights to modify the phone switch to give 'stutter dial tone' as an
indicator of a message, the way some telcos like IBT and Centel handle
it.  PAT]
