Does anyone know how to send a message to a Cisco 7940/7960 phone running SIP images 6.3 telling it to light up one of its LED's when new voice mail arrives? I found alot of web based solutions http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+GUI and easy ways of getting email or getting paged of a new voice mail - but nothing where you can just look at the phone and see a blinking light or illuminated LED indicating new voice mail.. Thoughts?

Perhaps being notified via the LED display as opposed to the 3 leds.

However, there are 35 hits so take a look. http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-October/022796.html or, more recently: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-February/007855.html Bottom line, you have to put the mailbox= record in the sip.conf file in the stanza for the device.
