I was looking at the ILECs’ web sites to determine how their users
access voicemail.
What method should I use for my users checking their voicemail? Can
Asterisk voicemail be made to accept hitting * during the greeting to
enter the voicemail system? If they call their own number, how do I get
Asterisk to recognize that and take them to the voicemail system?
Mike,
A common approach is to use the caller id in combination with some digit
sequence. For my systems, I've just used 555 as the VM extension.
exten=>555,1,VoicemailMain(${CALLERID(num)})
For access to the VM from outside the system, I've used an AGI script to
query a database to validate the user.
