The 6041 isn't an answering machine. If you have an answering machine connected to your phone, consult its documentation (or post a new question here, specifying the make and model of the machine). If you subscribe to an answering service offered by your phone company, contact them for instructions and help.

DTU-16D-2

Voicemail is usually ext 200 or 300 if it's not assigned on a speed dial button. If your ext has a mailbox assigned the voicemail will greet you or ask for your code. If you don't know the code your voicemail administrator will have to reset the password or mailbox. If your ext doesn't have a mailbox assigned, then it will just give you the main greeting that outside callers get.

Reset voicemail password on toshiba phone dp5122-sd

1. Enter your voicemail Code. This is like an extension which dials voicemail (mine is 750).
2. # *
3. 999 #
4. 999997 # (this is the default password, but it might have been changed. contact your phone company for the password)
5. 8
6. Follow the prompts. You will need the DN number for the phone. Also, select "Reset Security Code", not "Reset Mailbox". Resetting the mailbox will erase ALL data from the mailbox (voicemails, greetings, names, passwords).
I hope this helps!

Nokia 5185

In order to change your voicemail message you need to call into your voicemail system. Voicemail is not actually in the phone but a service where your calls are forwarded to. Most voicemail systems will play the main menu if you press the * key. One of them should be about a greeting. Check with your carrier for specifics.
