[asterisk-users] Delete voicemail messages on asterisk by replying to email
Like many users I get my voicemails emailed to me, AND left on the asterisk server, so that I can retrieve them by phone or by email. However, I was frustrated that after I deleted a message in outlook that I still had to delete it from asterisk manually. So, I wrote a script that runs on the asterisk box that allows the user to simply reply to an email (from the asterisk pbx) - which causes the associated message files on asterisk to be deleted. It's a safe script in that it will NOT delete a message if there is any ambiguity as to which voicemail message files match the email, etc. It also has full logging (in /var/log/asterisk/voicemailcontrol). Email me if you want to try it. (You will have to rename the voicemail directory etc since it's hard coded into the script. I have not created a config file yet...) -MD- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[asterisk-users] Delete voicemail messages on asterisk by replying to email
After lots of interest I've stopped emailing people the script and have made it available for download from www.generationd.com Look in the Downloads | Asterisk section. Be sure to read the readme AND the top of the script for instructions...
