You've done the hard bits. The bad news is that, under CCM, there's really not much in the way of VM configuration. You should set up the VM Pilot stuff to your extension for the Asterisk voicemail- this allows you to click the 'voicemail' box on each extension rather than keying it in- but you still have to touch each extension. You can use their automated tools to make systemwide changes to all extensions- but I don't trust them at all, and I don't think that would help you in this case. I'd love to see how you configured the MWI and how you've set your dialplan- from the way it looks, you're using a different extension for each mailbox. Theoretically, there should be fields on the PDUs from h.323 that show the forwarding number- that's the way Unity does it- and you go into VM for the forwarding number, not for the extension dialed. I'm not sure without playing if any of the h323 channel drivers make the forwarding number available as a channel variable- if they don't, it should be a relatively trivial patch, assuming CCM sends it across (which I'm pretty sure it does- again, time to set some debugs and watch the PDUs). -pbd _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
