[Asterisk-Users] transfer incoming call to VM without answering call

[Jonathan Nalley]

Hi, i'm a newbie running Asterisk 1.2.1 with Cisco 7940/7960 SIP version 7.4 phones.  Is there any way in the dial plan or other mystical conf file to allow a user whose extension is presently ringing to press a button on their phone that would instantly send the incoming call to the called user's voice mail without "answering" the call??

In example: i see from the CID information on the phone's display that John Doe is calling and I don't want to talk to him at the moment so I press some button and immediately send John Die to my voice mail.

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
