If you want to replace the default announcement, look in
the /usr/share/asterisk/sounds/ directory for files like vm-intro.gsm.

Alternatively you can record a file and place it as "unavailable
greeting" for all your voiceboxes instead of recording announcements for
each single voicebox by dropping a file "unavail.wav"
in /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/${VOICEBOXCONTEXT}/${VOICEBOXNUMBER}/
for all possible combinations of VOICEBOXCONTENT and VOICEBOXNUMBER
