I certainly contemplated that very thing... but somehow it escaped 
implementation.

Even as things are now, the PBX administrator can set something like this up 
by putting engineering, accounting, etc in different contexts, and setting 
different "o" extensions for them.

I was thinking of a couple of relevant features, one giving the individual 
mailbox user the ability to store a different extension (i.e., the target 
attendant) in the database that would override the "o" extension in the 
dialplan when a caller presses '0'. The other is to allow another number(s) 
to be stored in the DB so that a caller could press, say, 4, 5, or 6, and be 
transferred to whatever number the mailbox owner has stored there. Of course, 
all of this subject to whatever restrictions are imposed on the use of these 
features.

I will look into this.

Cheers,
Brad
