[Asterisk-Users] Help with extensions

[Robert Webb]

I have had the same issue when receiving a call from an IAX provider.
Here is what I did to solve it.

[from-proxy]
exten => .,1,Goto(voicemail-direct,s,1)

[voicemail-direct]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,2,VoiceMail2(${EXTEN:1})
exten => 3,3,Hangup

Not sure it does not pattern match like it should be the above worked
for me.
