It works properly if I disable the "automatic prepend" feature, but I like that feature.

My area code was set at 425, so I changed it in contact options. So my question is, is the phone adding the "1" prefix because of the pound key? Or is my area code setting still wrong somehow? If it's due to the pound key, is there any way to make an exception for the voice mail number?

Thanks for any help!

Is there a reason you dont just hold down the 1 button on your dialer to access voicemail
