If you get the message that the party is not available to try a different extension ....etc then the mailbox is there and just hasn't been set up. The system will have a mailbox download in mmc741 that will show you what is automatically set up. You can always access a mailbox by pressing any voicemail key .If you get the enter access prompt then you are at the mailbox for the extension you are at.To go to a different mailbox press * to get to the auto attendant then # + mailbox number.
Having a mw505 key is the easiest way to access the mailbox and "see" the messages.

Here is the best advise I can give you.CHANGE THE PASSWORDS ON ALL MAILBOXES IN USE.Very important to help prevent hacking.Delete mailboxes you aren't using and set that mmc 740 to not download automatically when the system starts to avoid creating mailboxes you don't use.And don't forget to change the admin password as well.It's no use doing everything else and letting a hacker access the admin mailbox and create their own mailboxes to hack.

As for pc access,it's probably the cable you are using. Hyperterminal is used for the voicemail access and OSM for the phone system.To be honest I'm not sure you would even get garbage with hyperterminal connected to the sio ports. But you would with the voicemail with the wrong settings.
