New voicemail and show on the handset display and I don’t know why.
Your telephone has voicemail indication that is separate from the built-in answering
system. If New voicemail and appear on the handset, your telephone has

answering system answers before your voicemail answers (page 36). To determine
how many rings will activate your voicemail, please contact your telephone service
provider.
