I just realized that I came up with a way to use DISA and still allow for<br>voicemail-like activity. Set background() to play your greeting and then<br>program in an exten with 9 which would then point you to your DISA dialtone.
<br> If the caller doesn't press 9, have them go to the general "leaving a message"<br>stage or whatever you want to do with real callers.<br><br>Undrhil<br><br>--- Asterisk<br>Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion <
