An aside, this can also be done using the externnotify option in the
voicemail.conf file. That option allows you to specify an external
script that will run when VoiceMailMain() exits. Watch out, because
(as I just found out yesterday, the hard way), this script is run
both when a voicemail message is left and when a user logs out of
voicemail after checking their messages.

From there, create a script in your favorite language (a simple
shell script ought to work for your purposes) and have it create a
call file to call out to the user and drop them into a context that
plays an announcement ("You have new voicemail") and then asks them
to confirm with a keypress ("Dial 2 for voicemail"). At that point,
set the IVR up so dialing 2 drops them into Voicemail() and you are
good to go.
