Hi I have,

British Telecom's call minder enabled on this phone there are currently about
12 messages and the modem dials out fine so we know it is possible
The settings on this system are just whatever the defaults are the modem is an
external US Robotics Sportster Vi 28.8

If you tell me where to look on this system for the settings I'll copy them and
send them to you.
