COS can specifiy a time control, so it seems to me it can interact. I was specifying a time control in my COS. Probably not the best way to do it.

My VM is the STS in skin HD based.

Hmmm... good idea on the preset forward. I'd have to find a balance between getting enough rings so it would be answered during the day, and not too many for them to wait for VM at night. Right now I nuked the time control, and set it to do nothing for day (just keeps ringing) and go to VM at night and pointed to the night menu I want. It seemed to eliminate the other problems. Having the auto-night and a matching time control was definitely confusing the system. Not sure why I ever even set it up that way.

Thanks.
