    Mail is just data access. What platform are you on?

    Yes, you may use YouMail service when accessing it through mobile web. However, if you meant downloading YouMail application into your phone, that is not going to be possible. Samsung T404 does not support downloading email applications; it only supports applications for games.

    If your planning on using Youmail for visual voicemail I highly recomend Google voice, it transcribes all your voicemail into text to.

    You Mail is a voicemail application which transcribes your message to text and/or sends the audio attachment to an email address. It works like Visual VoiceMail which is available for iPhones, certain BlackBerry phones and others on postpaid accounts. Many prepaid providers do not allow you to change the forwarding instructions associated with the telephone.

    You can use YouMail if you have the AT&T SIM, but it doesn't work on the T-Mobile SIM. T-Mobile doesn't let you set a custom voicemail number so to speak, which YouMail needs to do for it to work.

    When I call my number from another phone the you mail voice mail does not kick in. How do I change this?

    On the Youmail website should be the GSM code you have to dial with your phone to change the Voicemail Deposit Number. Simply subscribing to Youmail does not change the phone settings.

    Be advised that when you are roaming you might not receive your messages from Youmail.
