[asterisk-users] Unified Messaging On Thin Client / Terminal Server
I would like to get Unified Messaging working in a Thin Client / Terminal Server environment. What I would like to happen: when a user gets a voice-mail, Asterisk sends an email with a Voicemail-URL that notifies the person they have a message. When they click that from their Remote-Desktop / RDP / Thin Client session, that sends a message via HTTP to Asterisk to play the voicemail on the user's phone (Preferably with no other buttons needing to be pushed). The idea is that playing the voicemail over the Thin Client / RDP session won't work or will provide poor sound quality, but instead, to use the VOIP Network on a digital phone to play the message. Does this exist? Does it make sense? Is it possible to do? Thanks for your assistance! -- Jeffrey Thompson <jthompsonic at gmail.com>

Does it make sense? Is it possible to do?Or maybe: The thin client should have a soft-phone with a "voicemail" indicator/button. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com +972-50-7952406 mailto:tzafrir.cohen at xorcom.com http://www.xorcom.com iax:guest at local.xorcom.com/tzafrir

If it was going to provide poor sound quality due to network latency for example, wouldn't it stand to reason that the display would be garbled or slow to respond as well? Just a thought. And would using the VOIP phone lighten the need for network resources?
