Can I use YouMail with my magicJack?
The magicJack doesn't have conditional call forwarding, but there are two ways to get YouMail to work with the magicJack.
The first is to use YouMail Drop Box:
- Log into your MagicJack account at my.magicjack.com
- Click on "account e-mail"
- Add [yourYouMailPhoneNumber]@my.youmail.com as an additional e-mail address, and select voicemail?
For Example: If the phone number in your YouMail account is 8005551212, you will enter 8005551212@my.youmail.com
Note: Test it out by calling your MagicJack and leaving a voicemail. We're getting reports that MagicJack doesn't always make the change, even if it displays correctly on the screen. In that case, you need to contact their customer support at http://www.magicjack.com/techchat.
They can usually do a reset that gets this working within minutes.
The other way is to have the magicJack either forward to your cell phone or forward directly to YouMail (depending on whether you want magicJack calls to go straight to voicemail). To do that:
- Add your MagicJack number as a YouMail phone at http://youmail.com/youmail/user/myPhones.do
- Log into your MagicJack account at my.magicjack.com
- Click on "call forwarding"
- Enter your cell phone number and enable call forwarding (or put in the Youmail access number of 714-204-3114 as the forwarding number)
