How Do I Leave Voicemail Messages in a Different Mailbox?

Simple enough, I think, I've just never had to do this before:

A user wants voicemail messages that are left on one extension to be put into a different extension's mailbox.

For instance: I dial 555-1111 and leave a message. The message is deposited into the voicemailbox of 555-2222, not 1111.

Thanks in advance!
 
Here is the 1 million dollar question? What voice mail are you using?
 
The only way I know of doing this is to create a seperate cov path for that extension and at coverage pt 1 point it to a vdn that in turn points to a vector. The vector would then route the call to the messaging center for the extension that you want the vmail to enter.
 
Create a subscriber mailbox for 2222. Put extension 1111 as the secondary extension on the subscriber page. Calls to either 1111 or 2222 will go to the VM for 2222.

You could use the auto attendant feature. Set up the subscriber (x-1111 for example) as an auto attendant. On page three, set up the extension of the subscriber account you want to recieve the call (x-2222 for example) and make the treatment "call-answer" for the timeout step. Leave buttons 1-0 blank. Change the length of time-out on initial entry =0. This way whenever a call rolls to VM for x-1111, the call will terminate in x-2222's VM subscriber account.

You can also use the auto-attendant-routing table to do the same thing, but you only have 26 entries. The above method will work for an unlimited number of subscriber accounts.
