Pretty trivial to implement this with a couple of dial plan rules and a script to package up the recording, transcode optionally, and send it as an attachment. You lose the ability to have a MWI though at that point. I've taken a slight variation on this - using email notifications to a web UI to be able to listen to the message, which still supports an MWI, but the message isn't directly attached (just a "Listen as WAV" and "Listen as MP3" link) which doesn't support maintaining the MWI status. Users can also authenticate (using on-site SSO userid) and manage voicemail from a custom web page. -- Nathan On 07/21/2013 04:13 PM, Karl Schmidt wrote:
I see the voicemail app - but I want to do something much simpler and reading through the books and docs there seems to be several ways to approach this.
All I want to do is set up an extension to send unanswered calls to it will:
- Play a recording (please leave a message.. etc)
- Record the message
- hangup
- then email the message and not leave it behind in a voicemail box.
I can figure out the details, but my question is the BEST way to do this - a script or messing with the voicemail app?
(IMO this is a much better way to handle voice-mail - you check for messages at the same time you check your email - and listening to voicemail in vlc is much better than over a phone - you can scrub back to figure out the number/address etc.. You can forward the message via email if you need to.)
