Caller ID is a simple way to do it.
Make the mailbox number the same as your phone number, then select the mailbox
based on Caller ID.
It's in some ways more secure, too - it means only you (or at least, only your
phone) can log in to your mailbox, instead of someone else trying from their
phone by knowing your mailbox number and guessing your password.
