Long press 1 - that's voicemail. If your voicemail has already been set up, just put in your password and you'll get your voicemails. If it's never been set up you'll get voice prompts to set it up.

It's not set up in the phone, it's set up at the carrier's voicemail server. Changing phones doesn't change the voicemail setup.

My voicemail is set up, but I need to know how to have my password automatically in so that I don't have to enter it every time. Suggestions?

If you are with AT&T, I believe it is 611 to reset it. You should still follow the steps above if you have not already.

With Verizon, you can go into phone settings, go down to voice mail settings, and you'll see it currently says *86. Add two commas ",," {the commas are recognized as a pause} and then your pw, and when it dials the pw will automatically be entered. Say for example your pw is 1234, change the *86 to *86,,1234

It works like a charm.

Thanks for the tip. I wish the long pause could be bypassed tho. It seems if you enter one comma it's a tad shorter pause. Great tip tho.
What's actually more annoying to me tho is waiting for the voicemail lady to get to the dang message. I already know what number called and the time. She doesn't have to read it back to me. When Verizon revamped their VM service awhile back this came about. Used to be better getting right to my message. Oh well.
Edit: strange, worked for a while and then quit working, asking for my password again
