It sounds like you may need to initialize the voice mail card.

I WILL GO AHEAD AND DO THAT TODAY AGAIN... AND HOPEFULLY IT WORKS... KEEP YOU UPDATED. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO KEEP SENDING SUGGESTIONS. THANKS

Laurie:

You have your lines set to forward to 440, which is fine but you also have the VMID for the lines set to 440. Blank that out and you should be good to go.

OR..............You can set it up properly by setting up hunt group 450 and point your lines to 450 in page b instead of 440. 450 isn't looking for digits.

thank you ev607797 your the bomb...and thanks to u all i love this site. laurie
