Hi, Would be interestd in anyones ideas for this problem.. We are starting a new division to our company, the people in this new division will be the same people who are on the old division.. Calls for each division come in on seperate numbers and go through seperate menus but ring to common extensions, this is easy enough.. The problem is with Voicemail.. I need to have seperate VM boxes for each division so that the user will be able to distinguish between the messages for each division.. Basically the only ways I can think of to make this work is to teach the users how to access each seperate VM box with a seperate VM box number and password or I could use VM contexts and have two identical VM boxes in each context but then the user will have to access VoiceMailMain differently (eg 100 for division1 VM and 101 for division2 VM) for each VM box.. Can anyone think of any easier ways? later..

Its that each extension needs two VM boxes (one for each division) thats the problem and I want to make it as simple as possible for the users to access the two seperate VM boxes from the one extension..

Then have two identical VM boxes in seperate VM contexts with the same password.. That should work.. Now I just have to customise the email thet is sent to tell the user which divisions mailbox is the one with the message but that should be easy.. Thanks to all..
