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

[C F]

This is something that the phone you are using will have to support,
and your case with Cisco phones it is NOT supported, the Polycoms
support this. If you use a something like FOP (Flash Operators Panel)
then you could define an extension that just goes to VM, and drag that
call to VM.

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??
