Is anyone else having this problem? I go to youmail.com, and sign up for a new account. It says it's texting me an activation code, but it doesn't, despite trying several times.
It says that if the text message doesn't come, you can call a number to get activated, so I did-and I got a "you have dialed a non functioning number" alert.
I'm on an 8830/Verizon and have used several web sites that send texts for activation and it always works.
I use Youmail and did not have a problem with the text. Try to power off your phone and see if text comes. I just had my friend activate hers and it worked fine. Maybe its not compatible with Verizon.
Thanks gang. Of course, immediately after I posted this I got all 3 text messages.
Here's my take on it so far:
It's cool as ****. I have it configured not to give me any text messages, as the email it sends has all of that info it-and has the voicemail attached as a mp3 file!
The ONLY thing I think I'd like to add to this would be a home screen "new Youmail" indicator icon, as the only way I currently know I have VM is if I look at new emails.
Anyone know if this is possible, or if there's another way (app) that could help me achieve this?

i just put my messages folder on my homescreen... it gets a marker on it when a new message arrives.
I believe there is a setting on your youmail account page to keep your VM indicator current. It is under the txt alert section so I believe you have to be getting txt notifications to do this. I haven't tried it myself as I have limited text allowance and prefer notification by email.
