Notes
- You need to be logged into the system in thunderbird for now. The first time you click a number it will open a browser window inside of thunderbird, and you will need to log in. I usually then go to the active extensions page so that I stay logged in.
- Open the address book and click a phone number. It should dial your extension first, and then ring the other party.
