Folks,
I have been hacked recently on an old DOS VM on the Elite IPK myself. What I finally found that seemed to work perfectly is the "Trunk Outgoing Restriction" settings (4-19). I set each CO as restricted for my VM ports ONLY! Then I tested by setting the transfer setting on a VM box to our outside line dial number and it just sends you to dead air when you access that particular subscriber box. This will NOT work for any situation where VM is required to forward to an outside line but in my particular case this is not required so it seemingly worked like a charm. I'm hoping one of you with much more experience than I can confirm this (Chris, DrPBX?) but it's working for me. However, in the case of a requirement for VM to transfer to an outside number where does one go to set the toll restriction on the old DOS elitemail? As always, thanks to all the mods and helpful posters in the forums. You folks are the best!

On the the Aspire side this common also the one thing I tried to do is make sure none of the default greetings were in easily accessible boxes so that "fishers" couldn't easily recognize the default voice in the VM, I know the aspire has a default modem box and I made it a habit of changing to from default to something pretty obscure. I know the Elites do not have modem boxes but just a little FYI.
