Hence, whatever is defined for the 'vm-login' sound will be played for all users. For this one sound file (and this one sound file only), there is a mechanism you can use to bypass playing this sound file back. You can tell VoiceMailMain to skip authentication of the user using the 's' flag, and use VMAuthenticate to authenticate the user yourself. Note that internally, VoiceMailMain uses VMAuthenticate, so you're using the exact same mechanism, just from the dialplan. If you pass the 's' flag to VMAuthenticate, it will not play the vm-login sound, allowing you, if you want, to play a different soundfile. In general, it would look something like this (please don't expect this to work verbatim, but it gives you an idea): exten => 1,1,NoOp() same => n,Background("Your-sound-file") same => n,VMAuthenticate(1@default,s) same => n,GotoIf($[${AUTH_MAILBOX}=1] & $[${AUTH_CONTEXT}=default]?auth:failed) same => n(auth),VoiceMailMain(s) same => n,Hangup() same => n(fail),Hangup() Matthew Jordan Digium, Inc. | Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
