VMAuthenticate() Authenticates the caller from voicemail passwords
VMAuthenticate([mailbox][@context[,options]])

Behaves identically to the Authenticate() application, with the exception that the pass-
words are taken from voicemail.conf.
If mailbox is specified, only that mailbox’s password will be considered valid. If mail-
box is not specified, the channel variable AUTH_MAILBOX will be set with the authenticated
mailbox.
If the options parameter is set to the letter s, Asterisk will skip the initial prompts.
