You should set operator=yes in voicemail.conf to get "0" out to work.

Don't confuse them just because they are both called > context's. I created this bare-bones example to test it. [mycontext] exten => 8761234,1,Voicemail(u2048761234) exten => a,1,VoiceMailMain() It does not work. As mentioned I can skip the OGM by pressing #, but * (and 0) do nothing. With verbose set to 9 I see nothing on the console for any of the key presses. By the way, I'm using a recent CVS version of Asterisk. Asterisk CVS-HEAD-05/03/05-16:21:27 This is very baffling.
