Yes 1510 is an alternate extension.  Yes, Unity is the auto attendant.
So I guess what you are saying is if someone calls in from the outside,
Unity gets the call (being the auto attendant), and it routes to the "main"
extension for that number being chosen....I think I am seeing it.  I see how
that would be FAD, but

We wanted 1510 to be his "private" number.  I have set 1510 up as a full
fledged extensions, with it's own VM and all.  But that requires him to
login to two VM accounts, not what we want.

Is there no way to have this work like we want?  1500 always routes to
secretary, 1510 is callable from inside and outside and rings at 1510,
voicemail for both extensions is obtainable from one login??

Thank you!
