[Freeswitch-users] send voicemail with shell script

[Sean Devoy]

Thank you all for your help.  I do wish I could get this working; I know I used the script years ago and it is a handy backup. My immediate problem has been solved. I hired someone to get sendmail working on the FS server using my relay post office.  My VMs now arrive in email. It uses sendmail regardless of the mailer-app setting in switch.conf.xml. I restarted FS after every change to switch.conf.xml.

"This problem seems a bit strange and unusual; I, myself am strange and unusual".

I thought I saw you had mentioned that sendmail was always invoked. Sure this isn't an OS configuration problem?

There are far too many ways to ensure sendmail is exec'd and not the program you're trying to run. Especially if someone had deliberately compromised your system. Might be worth a look.
