I believe one of the patches involved in fixing for The Great Voicemail Problem* about a year ago was to make voicemail automatically renumber the mailbox files if it saw a gap.
* from memory: The Great Voicemail Problem is a bug where if you received a new voicemail while listening to a message, the mailbox was not renumbered correctly when you deleted a message. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Danny Dias Sent: Saturday, May 26, 2012 10:54 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Deleting OLD Voicemails I did not understand. What do you mean with renumber all the messages?

A little doubt here, once the user hears the voicemail using the phone, the message is automatically moved to Old folder, is that right? yes -- Edwin Lam <edwin....@officegeneral.com> Systems Engineer, OfficeWyze, Inc.
