What voicemail problems are you having? Since yesterday I hae not gotten MWI or voicemails reaching my phone. Luckily they go to my mobile phone as well or I wouldn't even know they were there.

Can you open a ticket on this?

Yesterday we deployed new faster MWI logic on our network so MWI is being handled a little differently now (and supposed to be faster/better). Please open a ticket with specifics if MWI is not working for you so we can look into that.

Hi Tim. I've already opened a ticket and have spoken by voice to support. Support did some testing and was able to duplicate the issue on their side. They then escalated to Level 2 support. If you'd like I can forward you the email I've received. Ticket # is #MRW-859-19995.
Thanks.

I had a developer take a look and reply. He marked one of your old messages as new to test it and said the device responded properly. If you're still seeing issues, please let him know in that ticket and he'll continue to look at it.

Support volume is actually really low, but we're growing fast so there definitely aren't any widespread issues.

The SMS backlog was caused by a user forwarding their SMS back to their own number which caused an infinite loop of messages and backlogged the SMS queue. Once we resolved it, they did it again the next day and then we looked into it further and realized what was happening so we added more logic into SMS handling to prevent loops.

SMS should be back to normal now.
