Hi folks, my goal is to access voicemail (there were some posts about this) but not by dialing numbers. As asterisk sends voicemails in e-mail, it's cheaper for us to read e-mails on our cell phone (3g, gprs), and the message is attached there. i've looking around in voicemail.conf and found: [general] ; Default formats for writing Voicemail format = wav49|gsm|wav my phone understands wav49, but some phones do not. wav is understood by all cellphones (every cellphone can play the message) but it's way too big. GSM is again, not understood by all phones. Is there a way to convert voicemail messages to mp3 format? Should i poke around with some hand-crafted application to generate the file, or is there built-in way to achieve this? since i don't know asterisk as much as i'd like, currently it seems that it's easier to catch the incoming e-mails sent by asterisk, detach the wav attachment, convert it to mp3 and resend to myself (this is not an asterisk-related task). but perhaps asterisk can be told to create the messages in mp3 format. thanks a lot adam
