Logging Into Voice Mail
To play new messages, you can set your Voice Mail options to Normal
or Automatic Playback. By default, your voice mail is set to Normal. In
this mode, after you log into your account, the system gives you a list of
options. To listen to new messages you must select the appropriate
option. After each message the system gives you another list of options.
These options enable you to tell the system what to do with each
message (i.e., save, delete, etc.). If you activate Nextel’s Automatic
Playback feature, however, the system will automatically play and save
new messages (see “Automatic Playback” on page 36).
