You all also should consider having another magic extension prefix on the asterisk that does:
Exten=> <your magic number prefix>_,1,wait(30) ...
first, and then once the "lookup()" is good, use the add_branch to fork the call to it. That way if the user doesn't answer, he also gets to voicemail. It's been working great for us that way.

Hi Alessio,
I imagined the redirection part just like you say, but from what I
have understood about asterisk I will have to set up
an extension and a mailbox for every ser user. This looks "time
consuming" :)
Not really. You don't need an entry in extensions.conf for every mailbox/user. You can use something like this:
[default] ;mapping from 34... to 93390... exten => _34XXXXXXXX,1,Goto(9339059${EXTEN:8},1)
;voicemail extensions exten => _9339059XX,1,Wait(2) exten => _9339059XX,2,Voicemail2(u${EXTEN})
And then in voicemail.conf :
933905903 => 1003,User one, user1@voztele.com 933905904 => 1004,User two, user2@voztele.com 933905905 => 1005,User three, user3@voztele.com 933905906 => 1006,User four, user4@voztele.com
Also: What about playback of recorded messages ?
Works ok, You can configure the codec/s you allow and the audio format of the recorded message.
If anyone has asterisk config files to share ... just to get an idea!
Hope this helps.

I would like to know if this is possible and what can I expect from this integration ...
