CRA option to collected digits, but get INVALID Extension...

[cpegeno]

So, I have 6.1.46 software on this MiVoiceOffice 250/Mitel5000...

I found that to do a CRA "collected extensions" option to get to a phone that has NO vmail box, and have it NOT say "invalid extension" I had to build a "EXTENSION ID" for said phone, to make it route to the phone.

MY QUESTION is... how do I have it ring 4-5 times, and NOT get the voice processor advising "if you would like to leave a message, please enter a mailbox number"
I have prompts and announce turned off.

Is this just a Mitel-ism... or is this software glitchy?
I did reboots and everything else.

Thanks in advance!

Do you want it to ring forever or go back to the auto attendant or someone else?  In any of these cases the key would be to build a system forwarding path for that phone that takes the call where you want it to go (live operator, auto attendant, not-avail-able CRA or HG that includes only that ext).  Any of these destinations will break the recall path.
Or you could set the system timer TRANSFER - VOICE PROCESSOR timer to a very high number if you don't want any A A transfers recalling to the A A.
