Happy Hacking.. * * * *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Intro: Well you may be thinking that, Oh! yes I've read tutorials before and they are about as helpful as a dead parrot..... I thought it was about time to write a little series of textfiles on how to use (and abuse) Mailbox systems. This series will NOT just cover Hacking and scanning of mail systems but also the facilities used on each................ Start: O.K. After recently coming across an ASPEN system which I successfully managed to hack a couple of mailboxes for my personal use, I didn't realise all the many facilities available to the (Ab)user. I have collated the following information myself I hope it will be of some help to U. Assuming that you already have a mailbox on the system: When Entering your mailbox number and passcode the system will tell you if you have any new (or saved) messages. Let's assume you have ONE new message. You may select the following options: Push: ----- 1 - Recieve Messages 2 - Send a message 3 - Check Reciept 4 - Personal Options Option chosen: -------------- 1: "" Whilst message is playing you have a sub-menu of options. 1: Rewind Message Ten Seconds 11: Rewind To Start Of Message 2: Pause Message (Press Again To Unpause) 3: Fast Forward Message Ten seconds 33: Fast Forward To End Of Message 4: Decrease Playing Speed (Slow Down) 6: Increase Playing Speed (Speed Up) 8: Decrease Volume 9: Increase Volume After listening to the message you may select one of these. 4: Replay Message 5: Envelope Message (Find Source Mailbox+Time+Date+Length) 6: Send On Message To Another Subscriber - Record Intro Msg. 7: ERASE Message 8: Reply To Message 9: Save Message In Archives (For Later Listening) *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* 2: "" Send a Message will ask you to speak whilst it records you. Press # to stop recording then enter Destination Mailbox. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* 3: "" Check reciept of messages sent. This will allowyou to check if a message has been read and also if a message has been saved. There are other uses for this function (See L8ter) *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* 4: "" Personal Options. Good fun can be had by all !! 1: Change Your Passwords ------------------------ This Section Refers To Guest Box Control.

Box is 888) ------------------------------- Passcode | Example ------------------------------- Box number - 888 Box number + 1 - 889 Box number & 1 - 8881 1 & Box number - 1888 Box number + 0 - 8880 0 & Box number - 0888 ------------------------------- Use Normal Hacking Techniques: ------------------------------- i.e. 1111 | \|/ 9999 1234 4321 ------------------------------- Scanning: ~~~~~~~~~ Once you have found a NEW Mailbox, or even a used one. .-------------------------, / DON'T CHANGE JACK SHIT / `-------------------------' Press '3' from the main menu. This Checks for Reciept of messages (See Previous) Enter Mailbox Number: xxxx When entered number the system will say one of the following: 1: The Mailbox Users Name 2: "xxxx Is not a Valid Number" 3: "xxxx" Start at 0000 then move up to 9999 making a note as follows: If you get : 1. Ignore and enter the next number. 2. Ignore and enter the next number. 3. Jump up and down and go WHOOOOPPPEEEEE , you may be in luck. When You Have finished you should have a list of POSSIBLE Hackable Mailboxes. ______ / \ / THEN: / \ / `----' 1. Hang Up And call back the system. 2. Press '#' 3. Enter One of Numbers on the list. 4. If it says 'Enter Password' You can either try and hack it but isn't gonna be a VIRGIN mailbox. 5. If it says 'This is a voice messaging bollox.... blahh blahh.' then it will come to a point where it says, 'Please enter the temporary password assigned by your System Manager'. 6. Enter Default Passwords. Defaults Are most likely to be the same for all the other VIRGIN voice mail boxes if not, try the other ones. 7. If It hangs up then GOTO 1. 8. If it allows you access then play with the options (See Previous) *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Thanx For Reading All Of This Text File.
