Enabling Zoom Phone voicemail drop

Account owners and admins can configure the voicemail drop policy through the admin portal for users with Power Pack licenses. This feature is disabled by default but can be enabled at the account, group, site, and phone user levels. 

The voicemail drop functionality allows users to automatically leave a pre-recorded message in a recipient's voicemail box without waiting on the line. The system prioritizes the voicemail drop prompt above other audio notifications to ensure a seamless experience without prompt overlapping. This enhancement streamlines communication workflows and saves time when leaving standardized messages.
