Yeah! That gets 'welcome' after about 3 seconds which is what it takes when calling from the other line!

So

a) what's that mean / what's the # doing? Saying 'that's the end of what I am going to enter', I guess?
b) is there a way to not have to enter # to get the 3 second response?
c) is 3 seconds the typical response time to get to voicemail?
