[Asterisk-Users] Newbie question

Hey All,



We are using Asterisks as a voicemail only application, and so far all is
great.  (Excellent product!)



However, I do have one question that I am hoping you might be able to help
me with.



In our asterisk application.  When our customers call *55 (our dialplan code
to check voicemail) then they are sent directly to voicemail (asterisk).
Asterisk then gives a voice prompt asking the customer to enter their
extension number (entire 10 digit telephone number in our case).



My question is.  Is there a way to make asterisk aware of the calling-from
(callerID) number so that it will automatically detect the number and then
go directly to asking them to input their password.



If so, where would I make the config changes for this in the asterisk config
files, and does anyone have an example of a similar config?



Thanks!
