put the mailbox=xxx command into the sip.conf like this:

[abcde]
type=friend
username=abcde
secret=xxxxx
nat=no                  ; This phone may be natted
host=dynamic
canreinvite=yes                 ; Cisco poops on reinvite sometimes
qualify=200                     ; Qualify peer is no more than 200ms away
context=sip
mailbox=627   ; <--- Add this line with your voice mail number
callerid="Matthias Cramer" <627>

Best regards

   Matthias
