 calls to voicemailmain.

Since the PSTN bills based on connect time, this is what Asterisk is
doing. The circuit is busy as soon as you answer the line regardless of
the action the user has.

hello,

Is it normal that * starts its billing when 
voicemail starts to prompt? can I do something like it will only start to 
bill if the caller left a message? right now, im seeing that unanswered calls 
that are forwared to voicemail are considered billable as well as calls to 
voicemailmain.

thanks,
