Well, I was excited to see this response, since I haven't implemented a 
way to check my voice mail from PSTN, but figure it would work based on 
your description.

Short version:

It doesn't work.  pressing * during my outgoing message does nothing.

Oh well, I guess there really is no free lunch.
