>select the "USE account" Google voice option

Is this normal or am I having an issue?

Thanks

**EDIT** also, if I receive an SMS through my phone, is there a way to reply to the SMS through the GV account? Maybe this is just a feature that has yet to be implemented.
I assume you are referring to Maemo 5? If so I recommend looking over again the first post, especially where it says "Known Issues"

It might be confusing but when I mean "Support for GV/System Contacts" I mean that it isn't working.

EDIT: I thought I'd include the bug numbers
