Hi Mike,
thanks a lot for the reply. I would still like
to be able to get into the rest of the system, i.e., other mailboxes than
the default, so if someone can shed any more light on this, that would be
great.
In the meantime though, you are absolutely
right on the default behaviour! Hitting "0" when the outgoing message is
being played does get you to the default mailbox. I was not aware of this
and there seems to be another problem which has muddied the waters for me.
When I test various bit and pieces coming in from the PSTN line, I have been
using my mobile phone (cell phone to you guys), the fact that my cell
phone does not behave the same way as a land line seems to have been
the problem.
It seems that hitting a key on the cell phone
is picked up by FreeSWITCH to drop you into the voice mail system, but
entering the "#" to enter the mailbox password isn't.
However, when I do the same thing from a
land-line (actually, a VOIP phone from the office) the mailbox password is
correctly recognised. The problem seems to be recognising the "#" entered
through a cell phone. Are you aware of any issues with cell phone tones
being recognised by FreeSWITCH ?
regards
Dave

Hi,
I have FreeSWITCH running over an internal
IP network, connected to the PSTN line with an SPA-3102. When an outside
(PSTN) call comes in, a Group of phones are rung until the first one
picks up or until the caller falls over to voice mail and can leave a
message in the Group Mailbox (100). I can retrieve the messages from any
local phone - so far, so good.
I'd like to be able to call in through the
same PSTN line and interrogate the group mailbox, or any mailbox come to
that. Can someone point me in the right direction for how to set this up
please ? i.e., once FreeSwitch has answered the call and the voicemail
prompts have stated, can they be interrupted so that I can get to the
voice mail extension.
I think by default you can dial 0 while listening to the
voicemail outgoing message to log into the voicemail, however I don't
believe there's a default way of turning the vm login into a gateway to
the rest of the system. Anyone?
