That's because 'a' is used when you're *in* the VoiceMail app...  i.e. you 
need to be hearing "You've reached my voicemail, leave a message" and press 
*.  That's exactly how most telco voicemail (and most KSU/PBX voicemail too) 
works.

If you want to do it in your IVR, then add a '*' extension.

Oops, I replaced the a's below with *'s and it works now.

Hi , I tried that and asterisk console says:

Set up voicemailmain in an extension that is part of the context used by
the dial in line and use a Background message so that you can capture
the DTMF for the extension.

You can include the voicemail extension in your incomig-line context

That way, while you are in the main menu, you could punch 8500 (or
whatever extension is you voicemail)

At least, that's the way I did it

Hope that help

In the same context as your Voicemail() dialplan execution add:

exten => a,1,VoicemailMain() ; you can optionally pass it a vm box number in 
the ()
exten => a,2,Playback(goodbye)
exten => a,3,Hangup

Now when you dial in, while your greeting is playing hit '*' and it will
prompt you for a mbox number and password (or just a password if you
pass in a mbox number)

Hmm doesn't that example you mention sound an awful lot like an IVR
setup? Essentially, once you answer the line, just make sure there is an
extension that will send you to voicemailmain.

[Asterisk-Users] Remote Voicemail Retrieval...

[Philippe Daoust]

Hello list,
I want to listen to voicemails on my * box from a phone that is not 
local to my pbx.  I.e., from my cellphone or my PSTN work line etc.  I'm 
aware that I can forward VM to email or use a web interface but that is 
not always practical.

Other than doing an IVR type arrangement or a phone number dedicated to 
VM access is there a way to do this?  On my old POTS line I used to be 
able to call my line and simply punch "*" during unavailable message 
playback to go to the equivalent of voicemailmain().  Is there a way to 
do this in *?

Thanks!
