<p>This application will immediately exit if one of the following DTMF digits are received and the extension to jump to exists:<br/>
<tt>0</tt> - Jump to the 'o' extension, if it exists. <tt>*</tt> - Jump to the 'a' extension, if it exists.</p>

<h3><a name="Application_Directory-Syntax"></a>Syntax</h3>
<div class="preformatted panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="preformattedContent panelContent">
<pre>Directory([vm-context[,dial-context[,options]]])</pre>
</div></div>

<ul>
	<li><tt>vm-context</tt> - This is the context within voicemail.conf to use for the Directory. If not specified and <tt>searchcontexts=no</tt> in <tt>voicemail.conf</tt>, then <tt>default</tt> will be assumed.</li>
	<li><tt>dial-context</tt> - This is the dialplan context to use when looking for an extension that the user has selected, or when jumping to the <tt>o</tt> or <tt>a</tt> extension. If not specified, the current context will be used.</li>
	<li><tt>options</tt> - Only one of the Only one of the <em>f</em>, <em>l</em>, or <em>b</em> options may be specified. <b>If more than one is specified</b>, then Directory will act as if <em>b</em> was specified. The number of characters for the user to type defaults to <tt>3</tt>.
	<ul>
		<li><tt>e</tt> - In addition to the name, also read the extension number to the caller before presenting dialing options.</li>
		<li><tt>f</tt> - Allow the caller to enter the first name of a user in the directory instead of using the last name. If specified, the optional number argument will be used for the number of characters the user should enter.
