Should fix for internal users if they are calling the vMail port. I don't know much about your system or handsets but we have a DSS button that is programmed to enter the gateway and ask for the password. This may not be an option for you. It isn't for our single-line handsets.

Hope this helps. Someone will correct me if I am wrong or if there is a better solution.
Was yours a DX80? Typically, the * is programmed to go to 9998, which is the Directory box. The reason I ask if it's a DX80 is because of a Custom field entry Comdial had in the older DX80 voicemails.

I didn't try putting the box number in the * field, when you do that you would need to give the directory box a new routing number, since * is directed to the directory box by default. That's still a good work around if it solves the trouble.

Mark,

Which prompt would play that you changed the file extension to? By changing the file extension, you are probably now filling the error.log file with errors relating to the system's inability to find a certain file.

It's been several months now and I don't recall. The VM was one of the really early 8 port hard drive systems. I think you helped me with this one and we turned the error log off.

We have a DXP Plus. Same situation as Mark, it would play on incoming lines answeredd by the auto attendant. For those boxes only, we changed the * to be the box number and put another button (say 3) to go to 9998. We put this in our greeting also. I guess the system was adding digits in the transfer [(800,*,*) found running a trace] and was not playing the greeting because it tried to translate the digits first OR the greeting was being cut off by the digits. Don't know why it said invalid digit but it would go to box 821, not the directory. When I put 800 in the * field of itself, this stopped. Have not tried clearing 9 as mentioned earlier though.
