Abstract
A subscriber's voicemail information is migrated from one voicemail system to another voicemail system. A telephone service activation server can send an instruction to a destination voicemail system to create a new voicemail account for the subscriber and a migration instruction to a migration server. The migration server can obtain voicemail information in the existing voicemail account from a source voicemail system and transmit the obtained voicemail information to the destination voicemail system where it can be stored in the subscriber's new voicemail account.
