Is the a way to check the voice mail of a different extension? I know if I setup in sip.conf context name not associated with the extension; so every time I login to check a mail it will asking me for mail box number (extension). But if the my extension matches the mailbox it is just asking me for password. Once I log in can I would line to be able to change the mailbox to check mail on other extensions. -- #Joseph

[Asterisk-Users] checking voice mail from different phone
Set up an extension that goes to voicemailmain()
Exten => 7777,1,voicemailmain()
Dial 7777 (or whatever you want
Another option is to set it up so you call your voicemail and press *
during the greeting, this is typical of many cell carriers, add the
following to your extension macro if you use one
exten => a,1,voicemailmain(${macro_exten})
there are other options as well, but the goal is to send the call to
voicemailmain()

First try this: grep -ir "voicemailmain" /etc/asterisk to see if it already exists. The sample config files I started with had extension 8500 for that and I left it there for the time being.
