Hello. I am using a snom 320 running 5.3.6 with Asterisk 1.2.4. In the sip.conf entry, I have mailbox=1234@default and vmexten=*98. The light on the snom 320 turns on when I have voicemail and the retrieve button dials the correct extensions. However, the light turns off immediately after making the call to voicemail, even if I do not check the voicemail. Any idea on how to get this to behave properly? Nabeel

The best option at this point is to set checkmwi=1 in the general section of your sip.conf file. This will cause the light to turn back on shortly if there are un-checked messages waiting.
I had the same problem, I just set the voicemail button on the phone to dial the voicemail extension, but you will still have the problem (at least on the 360) if the user uses the "Soft buttons" below the display to access the voicemail.

Someone urged us to implement this behavior. I guess there was a large company that told us that they were not able to send another MWI that indicates that the messages were deleted... So far people could live with this smart idea (it was not our idea).
