asterisk users - Jul 2003 - Direct entry to your own voice mailbox

Hi,

There is any possibility to dial a specific extension and then enter in your
own mailbox (the one defined for that specific SIP phone) without asking for
the exxtension number but only for the password?

I want to be the same extension for all phones, not a specific one for each
of them.

It is possible to have a time stamp in the recorded message? I want to know
when the  message has been recorded.

Thanks,
Dan

e.g.

exten => 8501,1,VoiceMailMain2(${CALLERIDNUM})

Sure.  Pass the mailbox as an arg to the "VoiceMailMain" or
"VoiceMailMain2"-app.  See "show application voicemailmain"
on the
Asterisk-console for more info.

I think you could do that by passing "${CALLERIDNUM}" as the arg.

I think someone here was working on a patch for that, which was waiting
for prompts to be recorded.  Not sure of the current status.

Why other prompts?
There is an application available (DateTime) to say current date and time.
It cannot be integrated in the Voicemail appication?

Thanks,

It seems to work with VoiceMailMain application too.

Hi,

this is one tool I have used a lot up to now; I have a simple conversion 
table: callerid -> voicemailbox. You could simply used ${CALLERID} or 
something, but I also have some remote cellphones and the likes...

#!/usr/bin/php4 -q
<?

// Set some parameters
ob_implicit_flush(true);        // Don't buffer output
set_time_limit(0);              // This program may take forever

// Setup file handles
$stdin = fopen("php://stdin", "r");
set_file_buffer($stdin, 0);
$stderr = fopen("php://stderr", "a");
set_file_buffer($stderr, 0);

// Do function definitions before we start the main loop
function read() {
    global $stdin;
    $input=fgets($stdin, 255);
    return str_replace("\n", "", $input);
    return $input;
}

function errlog($line) {
    global $stderr;
    fputs($stderr, $line."\n");
}

// parse agi headers into array $agi["callerid"]
while ($env=read()) {
  errlog($env);
  $s = split(": ",$env);
  $agi[str_replace("agi_","",$s[0])] = trim($s[1]);

  echo "VERBOSE \"".$s[0].": ".$s[1]."\"
1\n";

  if (($env == "") || ($env == "\n")) {
    break;
  }
}


// Main run
$clid = $agi["callerid"];
switch($clid) {
  // enter the mailbox number for each valid callerid
  // prepend 's' if you wish to trust the callerid and skip the password
check
  case "0612345678":    $parms = "s1000"; break;
  default: $parms = "0"; break;
}
if($parms != "") $parms = " $parms";

echo "EXEC VoiceMailMain$parms\n";

// Close file handles
fclose($stdin);
fclose($stderr);
?>
