so:

2. Choose
Actions > Screen Message.
3. Pick up your phone and listen to the message as it is being left. This is a one-way

4. To interrupt the message and take the call, choose
Actions > Take Call. You are connected
to the caller.
You can also listen to a voice message as it is being left via the phone.
