If the feature codes show as inactive, the phone system is not seeing the voicemail. Hopefully this has been fixed by now, but you may need to call in a Vendor.

SOURCE: Norstar: Inactive Feature (981)

This generally happens from one of two things. Your voice mail system is connected to your phone system through a station port. If it loses connection it will not communicate with the phone system. Loose wire or connection can cause this. or it has just crashed and will need repair or replacement.

First thing you want to do is unplug the unit wait 15 minutes and plug it back in. wait 10 minutes Try feature 981 from a set that has voicemail. if nothing. hit feature 985 from a m7310 set or a m7324 set not a m7208. If it comes back with inactive fearture now your connection between the units is bad or the unit itself is bad. If it comes back with the voicemail intercom # and you cant get into any mailboxes it has lost all programming.Try this first.

SOURCE: 1020000 no longer works

it's really simple.
enter Feature 985 then 9 and spell out RESETSMPSWD (73738767793) and then YES. That's it. it should go back to the original one. if your extension are 3 digits should be 1020000 and so on.
hope it works for you.

SOURCE: Norstar T7316 voicemail is somehow

Sounds like the voicemail system is locked up and needs to be powered down and powered back up.
The voicemail, if it is a Call Pilot looks like a small gray box which looks like this in the photo: http://presstelegram.kaango.com/resources/img/itemimages/JUN/491159/LO10559_491159_06302009144332-large.jpg
You can unplug this unit for about 15 seconds, then plug it back in...
It will take about 5 minutes for the Call Pilot to re-boot, then you can dial FEATURE 9 8 3 to ensure that it has come back up.
Good Luck!

Testimonial: "thanks..unfortunately my system is the 8 track player of phone set ups..dont have that box.had to call a phone guy. But thanks for repsonding quickly"

Had to rebuild mailboxes and now the main inbound number cannot dial internal extensions.

Does feature 983 still show as an inactive feature? You need to reinitialize the feature codes if the system was reset.

Please post what is currently happening.
