Customizing voice message behavior________________________
You can customize use of stutter dial tone, the message waiting light, and the order in which you
hear your voice messages. For example, you can hear your unheard (new) messages in the order
newest to oldest, and then you can hear your heard (old) messages in the order oldest to newest.
