[cisco-voip] Call reversion on CFNA to first party's Voicemail ->Any way around

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

as far as I know, there is no way around this. the story goes, it's working by design (as it does in other systems I believe) - if you call person A, and they have forwarded to person B, the caller would want to leave a message for the person they called originally. 

me? i say they did this to get prevent shared mailboxes and get you to pay more for each VM licence. ;)

i do know that original called party numbers are not maintained with translations, so perhaps you can create a translation *77XXXXX with a transformation mask of XXXXX and see if that works. 

let us know if it does.

  Not sure if the subject is the right description, but we have the
  situation during some internal extension migrations where Party A has
  forwarded all calls to Party B.  When a call comes into Party A, calls
  are forwarded to Party B, but after the ringout timer expires the call
  reverts back to Party A and is forwarded to the Party A voicemail box
  instead of going to the Party B voicemail.

  Our workaround so far has been to do a CFNA on party A to the full
  E164 number of Party B.  Calls then forwarded to Party B now go to the
  Party B voicemail box instead of reverting back to Party A's.

  If anyone has a way of getting round this feature so I don't incur the
  expense for the forwarded call, it would be great to know.

  Hope this explains the situation clearly enough.

  Cheers

  Nathan
