I did, however, find a list of Cox star codes.
- Go to voicetools.cox.com
- Sign in with your User ID and Password.
From the Voice Tools webpage:
- Click Settings (to expand Settings)
- Toggle Voice Mail On (will allow Voice Mail to be expanded)
- Click Voice Mail (to expand Voice Mail settings)
- Configure Rings from dropdown for number of rings before Voice Mail (2 to 9)
- Click Save
