When I use my S2 to make a live Skype call to a computer running Skype,
it works perfectly well.
However, if the Skype account on the receiving computer is off-line, and
set up for voicemail, something very odd happens. If I use the S2 to
leave a voicemail message, when that message is played back it is at
about twice the original speed, and garbled. It's as if it has been
split up into very short packets, and every other packet has been
removed, and the gaps closed up.
If I leave a voicemail message on the off-line Skype system by using
Skype on another computer rather than the S2, it's perfectly ok.
Has anyone else come across this, or has anyone got any ideas about
what's happening?

I don't use VM but I just activated it on one of my accounts and
called it from an S2 and yes indeed it's doing it for me too.

So is your S2 ok for a live Skype conversation, like mine, and only odd
when leaving a voicemail message?

It's just the voicemails left by the S2, as you say it's a bit odd.
