Unanswered calls to your mobile or landline phone can be forwarded to voicemail. Callers are able to record a short message that you can review at your convenience. After reviewing messages, you may want to delete messages that are not important. Voicemail messages for mobile and landline phones can be deleted in the same manner. Some mobile service and landline phone providers offer the option to access voicemail online.
