Voice mail problem / question

[bmargolis]

So I've had my iPhone for a couple of weeks now and for the most part, everything is great.

I was in my car and needed to check voice mail, so rather than using the voice mail on the phone, I called my own phone number. Holy CRAP! I had dozens of "old" messages. Everything that I had listened to on the phone itself was still saved.

Maybe it's supposed to work that way, but I just assumed that when I deleted something on the phone, it would delete from my AT&T messages also. Is there a setting that I need to change?


Thanks,

Bob

Did you go to the VOICEMAIL/DELETED MESSAGES screen and CLEAR ALL?

When you delete a VM on iPhone, it keeps it in DELETED MESSAGES, just in case you need to get it back - so you have to go into DELETED MESSAGES to actually delete it!
