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

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

if what you are trying to do is share voicemailboxes on a non-unity VM, they you can try creating a voicemail profile that sends the call to the appropriate voicemail box. 

definately not scalable, but it should work.

in version 3.1 or something like that, on the dn configuration page, there was a voicemail box field that worked perfectly for shared voicemail boxes. they got rid of it. :(

  Good thought.  Tried the translation pattern but the call still
  reverted to Party A's VM after ringout on Party B so back to the
  drawing board.

  At least Unity allows for alternate numbers on the one VMB.  Our non
  unity VM however doesn't have this functionality however which is
  where I'm getting stung.

  Thanks for the reply
