Using VoiceMailPro, I have incoming call route going to a menu, looking for 7??? keypress, going to a transfer with a specific of $key.

Works fine if extension exists, but if it does not, the caller is hung up on.

Unlike Dial By Name, there's no True/False test condition. How do I get a False extension kick back to the auto-attendant for a second attempt? What am I missing?

Thanks!

creat a short code of 7??? that routes back to the vm pro.

SC 7???
number "Short Codes.fail"
feature Voicemail collect

& a new wm short code enry for fail

existing extns have priority over short codes so this should not affect the normal operation
 
Uh! See... you got to think outside of the box.

The Shortcode wouldn't be 7???. It's actually 7XXX, but you put my brain on the right track.

I made the number the name of the VMP Shortcode and the feature VoiceMail Node and it works beautifully!
