[Asterisk-Users] Transfer directly to voicemail?

[Sean P. Robertson]

You can do something like:

exten => _8XXXX,1,Voicemail(${EXTEN:1})

This assumes 4 digit extesnions (XXXX) and takes you to the voicemail box of
XXXX whenever anyone dials 8XXXX. After you have this in your dialplan, you
can transfer to it as easily as you can call it.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Transfer directly to voicemail?


Does anyone have a setup (or am I missing a simple thing here) to
transfer a caller directly to someone voicemail?  Example: I receive a
call, the caller wants to speak with x, who I know is not in the office.
Other than transferring them to x's extension, which rings to timeout
and then picks up voicemail, can I transfer right into voicemail?

I am using all SIP phones in my setup (7960s).
Thanks,
Daryl
