Have you tried *69?
If that works for you, you could put that code with the number into a speed dial. That is easy, which is better than possible IMO.
Don't you mean *67?
Shale:
Yes. Edited to correct. What would Freud say?

I didn't want to go there. But it crossed my mind.

An interesting question. I've seen several different types of behavior. Right now, I still have one SP on GV which I will not move until it formally ends, since the voice quality is excellent as I see it, and the convenience and reliability are not anything I have to think about.
So I just tried to dial my own GV number from the GV/Gtalk phone line, and my Google voice mail came on immediately. So it "knows" what phone you are calling from, and it sends you to your own voice mail.
I don't know how this works with other SIP lines, but when I had a land line, it worked the same way when calling the GV number from a land line listed as a forwarding number.

I do not currently have an outgoing provider on my SIP line, other than GV. So I just initiated a callback from my GV page of my SIP line to my own GV DID number (which is the only way I have right now to place an outgoing call from that line). My phone rang as normal and when I picked up, the same GV voice mail attendant came on "you have NO new messages. To place a call.... "
So my evidence suggests that it is SUPPOSED to work just like standard cell phone/phone co voice mail. You call your own number, and it kicks you into voice mail, just like an outside caller calling into a busy line. So I suspect your vestalink is not functioning right. Or at least not acting the way it is designed / intended to.

I'll look into this more later. I'm a bit P.O.ed at this whole process. Vestalink hijacked control from ObiTalk web site. Then I notice if I don't subscribe today their promotional pricing might go up--what? it just went up 3/31. If it goes up again I might as well go with PhonePower which offer unlimited vs Vestalink's 2000 minutes a month. I just signed up and 1 day of a free months trial is not enough time to decide. So I put Phone Power on SP2 and I have some testing to do but I think I'll go with them. As for VM most of the time I like to get it via computer anyway.
