Some people try to get really fancy with their voice mail greetings and they will put the current date on their message. This requires you to update your voice mail greeting daily. This level of customization is completely unnecessary and often leads to problems when the user forgets to update the actual date itself. However, updating your outgoing voice mail message to reflect a particular season or holiday can be a nice touch as long as you remember to change it accordingly.
To check your voice mail: Tap the Voice mail icon at the top of the screen. Find the message you want to listen to, then tap the Play icon to hear the message. To exit voice mail, press the Back button.
