I’m trying to modify my dialplan so that I can press a single button on my phone, be connected to voicemail, and enter only a password to gain access.

 

Currently I use a programmable key to dial 4000. I am prompted for my ID, and then password.

 

I’ve poked around “mod voicemail” on the wiki and searched the mailing list and web, but haven’t found enough info. I have discovered that this behavior seems to have been available in previous versions of the default dialplan.

 

Is it still possible? Is it advisable? Was this feature/behavior removed for security reasons?

 

I apologize ahead of time if the answer is somewhere in plain sight that I haven’t looked yet. If so, I’d much appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

 

As always, thanks for any help,

 

Joe P.
