Hello :

I would like to define extensions on my FreePBX that have no VoIP phone associated with them. I want these users to have a 3 digit extension, and I want them to appear in the dial by name directory but when someone dials their 3 digit extension the call should be connected to an existing phone number.

I have only been partially succcesful in this endeavour. I have created the extension (510) and used the

"This device uses custom technology.
dial "

field

with the following entry

SIP/voice1/19056972489

It works in that if one of my internal callers dials ext 501 they are connected to +1 (905) 697-2489. The problem is that if there is no answer the FreePBX voice mail answers the call. My preference is that the VM on +1 (905) 697-2489 should answer the call.

Is there some way of disabling voice mail for an extension while still having that extension in the dial by name directory.

Thanks

Louie
