asterisk users - Aug 2008 - Automatic call to voicemail on login?

Hi,

I would like to arrange that when an IAX client logs in / registers with
my * AND there are unread voicemails, this IAX client will be
automatically called and connected to the respective voicemail box.

One possibility is to have a cronjob that creates a callfile - let's say
- every five minutes which checks ChanIsAvail and connect to the
voicebox if new messages are there.

But with lots of IAX clients, this does not exactly scale very well.

If there any other native way to execute an action on login or logout of
a client?

Terve,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

I'd expect there's a Manager event that is fired when an IAX client
login happens. You could watch for that and initiate your call if
there's voicemail at that time.
