Multiple Voice Mailboxes

Multiple voice mailboxes would help me so much and I have no doubt many other susbscribers would sign up for this. I'm surprised it still isn't offered.

Yes, Yes, Yes. It is a must have. I might have to switch to Packet8's virtual office because it is soooo important for my small business.

Absolutely. My business partner and I are currently using Aptela (http://www.aptela.com) for this, and are considering switching to GotVMail (http://www.gotvmail.com/) ... both of which act as virtual phone system front ends to any lines -- Vonage, cell, etc. Unfortunately there is a considerable (though not unreasonable) added cost involved.

I requested the addition of multiple mailboxes from Vonage and their reply was, " We currently offer the option of one voicemail box per Vonage phone number. We may offer the option in the future to have more than one mailbox per line." Nothing more.
Because having multiple mailboxes and a professional image is important to me and my small business, I've been researching other options. There are several providers of virtual offices available (gotvmail, freedomvoice, unite.ca, etc). I'm just starting my research now, and I've noticed that most make you pay per minute for incoming/outbound calls on top of what Vonage charges. This certainly adds up.

Attention Vonage - are you listening? Christmas wishlist - Toll free number, multiple mailboxes, on hold music, dial extension by name. Thanks.
