asterisk users - Aug 2006 - Grabbing authenticated mailbox value from VoicemailMain()

Is there a way for me to grab the value of the authenticated mailbox from the
VoicemailMain() app? 

If a user calls in to the main extension, enters in a mailbox and password and
authenticates, I want to know what mailbox number was authenticated for use in
another app. For instance, when the AdvancedVoicemail stuff is being used, and
a user is dialing out from within voicemail (option 4 to place an outgoing
call), I currently have that dialout going to a particular context and within
that context, I'd like to be able to set the new callerID to be the callerID
of the authenticated user (not the original caller). 


Any ideas?

Still stumped on this one.

Am I going to have to scrap the idea of using the outgoing call function of
VoicemailMain as a way to authenticate and process an outgoing call (i.e.
should I be building something specific using VMAuthenticate) ?

N.
