| I got an answer from one of my partner SE's. FYI for everyone.
<B>Symptom:</B>
After calling Unity from a primary or alternate extension and entering an
incorrect password, Unity reprompts the subscriber to enter their ID.
<B>Conditions:</B>
Seen with cisco Unity 4.2(1) when a subscriber calls Unity from a known
extension (primary or alternate), and enters an incorrect password. In
previous releases, if an incorrect password was entered, Unity would
reprompt for the password. With sign-in enhancements in 4.2(1), Unity now
prompts for the ID if an invalid password is received.
<B>Workaround:</B>
None.
The Unity DE's have reported that this design modification was to fix what
they believed to be a security hole. This will be the expected behavior
for Unity 4.2.1 and forward. Currently there is no plan by the Unity
Business Unit to change this behavior or give customers access to change
the behavior.

Unity 4.2 versus 4.05
In Unity 4.05 when a user enters the wrong password they are prompted to
re-enter their password. In 4.2 they are prompted to enter their
ID(extension) AND then their password. Is there any way to change it to
behave like 4.05 or is this just a change we have to live with.
