  Why does voicemail prompt me for an extension instead of 
 just asking 
  my password?
 
 Because there is no Voicemailbox 99 in that context in your 
 configuration. 
 
 
  [voice-mail]
  exten = 99,1,VoicemailMain([EMAIL PROTECTED])
  exten = 99,2,Hangup
 
 In your example, $EXTEN will always be 99, because that is 
 the extension.
 
 If you would like to have the 99 as a prefix for the 
 following voicemailbox number you could do something like:
 
 exten = _99.,1,VoicemailMain(${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
 exten = _99.,2,Hangup
 
 And then 99123 would go directly to Mailbox 123 (if it exists).

 Andreas

Here is how mine is:

exten = *55,1,Voicemailmain(${CALLERIDNUM})

Mine works.

super snip

 exten = 98,1,SayDigits(${EXTEN})

You might want to try with ${CALLERIDNUM} instead of ${EXTEN}

Using the EXTEN variable will give you the extension that was dialed.  Try using 
CALLERIDNUM (for this problem and your other post).

The ${EXTEN} variable is the extension number, which in this case will
always be 99. You will want to use ${CALLERIDNUM} here (or some variant
thereof.)

${EXTEN} in your example contains 99 ... you want to use ${CALLERIDNUM}

Yep, and if you do 

exten = *55,1,Voicemailmain(s${CALLERIDNUM})

(inserted an s before ${CALLERIDNUM}), it won't even prompt you for the
password.
