The voicemail may not be working on the BT 6861 phone if the web server is disabled by the administrator. When this happens, the phone cannot upload the problem report, and the screen may show "Error: 109" or "Report Problem" with an unavailable download link. In this case, contacting the administrator is necessary to resolve the issue.

Hi. I would like the telephone to beep or have a noise signal when there is a voice message. Is this an option?
