Well no reply yet, so I've been further searching on the assumption that this
is so obvious, I should have found the answer myself.
Despite some interesting related threads, I'm still none the wiser.
Surely, there is an option to monitor the Voicemail either at the the console
via the speakers and pick it up.
It would also be handy to monitor at the extension (speakerphone) and pickup
by punching in a code, or just picking up the extension.. For example, you
may be busy doing something else, decide to let VM handle a call, but on
hearing who the message is from, or, what the subject is about, decide you
want to deal with it immediately.
Often, if it's out of area ie. no callerID.
Any feedback appreciated.
Regards...Martin
