Allegedly, you can press 0 while in the voicemail greeting
and be dropped to the 'o' extension. For some reason, I can't get it to work. The 'docs' aren't clear about what context the o extension should be in. The voip wiki says
"the context for the voicemail box that we're looking for
in the dialplan for the jump to the 'a' or 'o' extention"
Whatever that means...

My dialplan has:

[foo]
exten => 556,1,Answer
exten => 556,n,Voicemail([EMAIL PROTECTED])

[default]
exten => o,n,Playback(tt-monkeys)
        
My voicemail.conf has:

[general]
operator=yes

[default]
3254101 => 1234,Foo

When I press '0' nothing happens. Nothing is displayed on
the console to indicate any attempt to dial 'o'.
Put exten => o in the same context as Voicemail. I don't know if you can include => the context it is in or not.

Grrrr. It's a fussy bastard. I took what I finally got working in a simple test 
scenario and tried to apply that to production and it ain't working.

In Asterisk you are NEVER supposed to be able to access a different context without an explicit Goto, include =>. There are a few applications that let you access another context, but you must still specify it somewhere.
