+1 for voicemail and sip user. I would love to be able to setup a generic
voicemail box that are not related to any sip user.
Where you can have sipuser1 at abc.com and sipuser3 at abc.com both have the same
extension 2310 and  2310 would be the real voicemail id.
mod_python needs a more elaborate documantation compared to mod_lua.  A
page dedicated to serving configuration with mod_python would be a big plus.
