[asterisk-users] Change Default Voicemail Message

[Matt]

The issue is simple.  You make the voicemail box be the same as the room
number, then you get:

Playback(Welcome-2-nursing-home)
Voicemail(xxx,s)

Voicemail plays "you've reached room, xxx, please leave a message" then
beeps and records message.
