On my iPhone
I'm setting up a contact for my home voice mail. I want to be able to voice dial "call voicemail" or something like that and have it call my voicemail, logon and listen to the messages.

The voicemail system I use is through Verizon and when I dial in it asks for my home phone number followed by a # sign, then the passcode and again followed by a # sign. When I setup a contact for my home voice mail I typed the number as follows.

voicemailnumber(pause)homenumber#(pause)passcode#

The problem is when the iphone dials the # it is not reconized by the verizon voice mail. Now I can dial it myself and it works, but if the iPhone dials it doesnt. So my question is, how to have the iphone dial a # that works?

Thanks in advance.
