Resetting mailbox passwords - " I'm locked out of my mailbox "

Note: You will not lose any messages
Log in to the System Manager’s mailbox by pressing the "Voicemail" button (or pressing the “Open Mailbox” button)
Press #6* 999, the password, and # (please call us for your password)
The system will now say: "You have zero new messages"
