Change your voicemail number
If AT&T changes the phone number for your voicemail system, you need to
change the number on your phone. This is the number your phone dials if
you use any of the shortcuts to access voicemail (see
Listen to voicemail
messages ).

2 Open the application menu and tap Preferences .
3 By default, under Voicemail Number , your current voicemail number
is highlighted. To change it, simply type the new number. If the current
number is not highlighted, tap the number to highlight it, and then
type the new number.
Use dialing shortcuts
Dialing shortcuts add a prefix at the beginning of a number, so you can dial
an extension instead of the whole number.

Example: A complete phone number in your company’s phone system has
11 numbers, for example, 1-408-555-1122. When dialing from a phone that’s
