Phone In
Yahoo! Voice answers the call for simple, affordable PC
calling.
When you're signed
into Yahoo! Messenger and someone dials your number, you'll hear the ring
(you can even set specific ringtones for specific people). You'll
also see the person's name (if they're in your Yahoo! Address Book) as
well as the caller ID number. Click Accept to talk
away, or Decline for voicemail.

to your voicemail. When you have messages, you'll be alerted with
the voicemail icon in the toolbar on top of your Friends list. Just
click it to hear messages.
