Name
VoiceMailMain() — Enters the voicemail system
Synopsis
VoiceMailMain([[s|p]mailbox][@context])
Enters the main voicemail system for the checking of voicemail.
Passing the mailbox argument will stop the
voicemail system from prompting the user for the mailbox
number.
If the mailbox is preceded by the letter s, the password check will be skipped. If
the mailbox is preceded by the letter p, the supplied mailbox will be prepended to
the user’s entry and the resulting string will be used as the mailbox
number. This is useful for virtual hosting of voicemail boxes. If a
context is specified, logins are considered
in that voicemail context only.
Returns -1 if the user hangs
up; otherwise, returns 0.
