[Asterisk-Users] Auto-assign CallerID for all my FXS Interfaces

[pbx at itsngroup.com]

In an answer about the voicemail box extension, I have 3 different sipura
boxes linked to the same voicemail account?

Sipura 1 = Sipura 2000 - with line 1 being my home phone
Sipura841 - Extension 2 = also my home phone
Sipura 2 = Sipura 1001 = phone in the bedroom - being the home phone

so i can pick up any one of the three and get the stutter tone and check
voicemail.

I have the seprate ones, becuase after hours (after 10pm) i dont want to
ring the bedroom phone), etc..
