[Freeswitch-users] Voice mail: skip announcement

[paul.degt]

Is there a way to skip "the person at extension..." announcement when 
forwarding a call to voice mail, so that it starts recording 
immediately, or just says something like "start recording..."?
Also, is it possible to turn off voice mail play back feature, meaning 
when somebody tries to leave a voice mail one needs to press a button  
to end message and then VM suddenly plays it back?
I see there's sounds.xml but not sure it help me to do what I need , is 
there any write up on how to customize it?
Would appreciate some directions.
