Is it possible to just do a PUT/POST to activate the MWI on a phone?  If not I am assuming using CUMI to send a message is the preferred route. 
I have read:

you can't flip on/off the MWI directly (even via ODBC directly) - the lights should always be in synch with the mailstore state (i.e. unread VM message = on, no unread messages=off) - allowing 3rd parties to bypass that and mess with the light directly is not a good idea.
if you want to flip the light on you'll need to leave a message - not sure what the end goal you're working towards here is...

 We are working on a application that does phone checkout.  It will use JTAPI to ensure the MWI is active on a phone.  This helps us validate the users vm is setup correctly in relation to the phone.  I will look into sending the message via CUMI...
Thanks!
