asterisk users - Sep 2005 - MWI indicator HINT on Snom thru IAX?

I have many remote locations that dial into a central server to retrieve
voicemail via IAX. Outbound calls are handled as SIP calls from a Snom to a
local (to them) Asterisk server that dials the main server thru IAX. I have
trained them to check their voicemail via the emailed WAV file, however some
of them are, how shall I put it, idiots*, and insist that they *have* to
have the MWI indicator light on their phone and / or a stutter tone to
indicate the presence of voicemail. Is there a way to propigate MWI hints
through IAX? I have read snippets in the list archives that indicate some
people are working on it, but other than that I haven't seen anything. Has
anyone done this, or is there a way I could fake it? tia

*Actually, it's largely unfair to say this. This is regular expected
behavior, it just frustrates me that they are unable to forget the old way
of doing things.

Remote MWI notification via IAX works quite well. There is a thread
about this in May -- read the entire thread to see how I got it to
work: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2005-May/109726.html

Same setup (central voice mail server, remote servers connected via
IAX with "local" SIP clients) but with Sipura devices.
