asterisk users - Feb 2012 - Define custom vm-login sound file per VM context?

Is it possible to define a customize the which sound file is played when I
send a caller to VoiceMailMain()?

By default the sound file is vm-login.<codec>.

Is there a way to specify which sound file is played per context or some
other way to play a different sound file in place of vm-login?

I have already replaced the default file and named it the same vm-login.x
but still I am only able to play one file, not a different file depending
on the VM context I send the caller to.

I am sure someone has figured this out so, any shortcut to keep me from
frying my brain on this would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I believe this is what you want.  Instead of this

Exten => _X.,123,Voicemail(100)

 

Do 

Exten => _X.,123,playback(your-message)

Exten => _X.,123,voicemail(100,s)

 

Per the instructions, (100) plays the standard message, (100,b) plays busy
(100,u) plays unavailable and (100,s) plays nothing (skip instructions).

Danny,

 This seems to be a solution for sending people to leave a voicemail, I
need a solution for VoiceMailMain() when people call in to get their
messages, change greeting etc.

If I use the s option with VoiceMailMain it just skips checking the
passcode according to the docs.

Thanks for your help though, any similar ideas for VoiceMailMain?

I am playing the sound file I need before sending them to VoiceMailMain but
then Comedian Mail! plays right after of course.
