[Asterisk-Users] voicemail without prompt

[Ross Kevlin]

this would still only work if the mailbox number was the same as the caller
id. I need someway to get the actual mailbox number of the caller.

I did something like this with some IF logic and changed the callerid to the
appropriate callerid for the mailbox number.   Granted I am sure that there
is a more eloquent approach to this but it works for me.

;8600 is the vmail pilot number.  If the CLID of the extension
;calling the pilot is 2001-2013 then change the clid to 2000.
;This is done so that when users hit the primary dn and hit the
;messages button they end up in the main mailbox.
;If the extension isn't in the 200X range then it is either
;5001 or 5000 in which case we don't modify the CLID

exten => 8600,1,GotoIf($[${CALLERIDNUM} = 2001]?50:2)
exten => 8600,2,GotoIf($[${CALLERIDNUM} = 2002]?50:3)
exten => 8600,3,GotoIf($[${CALLERIDNUM} = 2003]?50:4)

I'm trying to find a way to call voicemail without being prompted for my
mailbox number. I was wondering if there was a variable for sip mailbox, or
is there a way to define a variable that matches a sip's mailbox.
I tried using "exten => 996,1,voicemailMain(${CALLERIDNUM})" but this only
works if the mailbox matches the caller id.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
