[Asterisk-Users] How to avoid that certain calls come into the voicemail (e.g. wakeup calls)?
We use wakeup calls for reminders, but it happens, that the person to be reminded is on the phone. To get a voicemail later is not really useful anymore, ... Is there a way to avoid that? bye Ronald

[Asterisk-Users] How to avoid that certain calls come into the voicemail (e.g. wakeup calls)?
Ronald: Try reducing the duration for which the wakeup call waits on the person it is calling; my default is 20 seconds. Here is a sample of one of my wakeup call files, automatically generated: Channel: SIP/500 MaxRetries: 1 RetryTime: 10 WaitTime: 20 Application: MusicOnHold Callerid: * Wakeup Call Twenty seconds works for me (without the call going to VM), but I tried setting it to 200. Asterisk said is was an invalid time and the call timed out and hungup after about 40sec. It also looks to me, on the test I just ran, that it will try calling twice, even though MaxRetries is set to 1. -Andy On Apr 6, 2005 5:30 PM, Ronald Wiplinger <ronald@elmit.com> wrote:> We use wakeup calls for reminders, but it happens, that the person to be > reminded is on the phone.
