On the AA we need to have an option to leave a group voicemail directly
as another note it doesn't work for the "missed call" notifications as well. they are annoying and I want to send them to a different folder.
FYI, I am in a 100% online environment.

I've attached a text file with my macro. It took me some time to get it right the first time. I used a couple of tutorials to get it working. I don't remember which libraries were necessary to import. but if you search the text of the Application_Quit() sub you should be able to find it on google. That sub was unchanged from the original (including the comment).
And yes macros only run on client applications meaning that the client's machine must be on, and running Outlook Desktop app with the macro running.

Do you have an example of that macro? Also, does it run only when that user's machine is booted / logged in to outlook desktop?

We had this issue when SfB was in preview and first got vm. I attempted to work on this for a few days with support, we determined that due to the way the notifications were generated, a rule will only work on items already existing in the mailbox. I solved the issue by writing a macro on a timer to forward voicemails to a shared mail box. The down side to this was that the user running the macro didn't have a private voice mail.

Hopefully MS will get a unified voicemail for sfb.
Thanks for your help!
