If auth is done via PAM you open up pretty much an entire range of auth options from LDAP to database driven as it'll act as a clean layer... This isn't to say I like pam at all, but... It's an option..

I've yet to look at what's really going on here as far as the status..

www.asterisk-mail-sync.com/wiki/

Haven't looked at the code, but..
a) What's the licensing and can it just be picked up and finished by someone else.. (Of course giving a kickback to original author for his efforts.)
   b) What features were missing if anyone knows...

I'm trying to create a flow of what's going on here so please pardon if I get this wrong.

Step 1) Asterisk receives VM
Step 2) Asterisk is now supposed to deliver VM to users IMAP account..
Q.1) Is the IMAP daemon guaranteed to be on the same machine or is there a separation of layers and the IMAP server is on another machine.. Q.2) Can I change X-Asterisk-VoiceMail-ID=################ to X-Asterisk-VoiceMail-ID=|xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx (It's a GUID) Or did Asterisk already create this? (I haven't setup a test yet with VM configured.)|
Step 3) The VM is now in the users IMAP INBOX
Step 4) User can do do "normal" email related things and those changes correspond in both directions...

So we need an IMAP compatible daemon tied into Asterisk VM and a custom IMAP daemon which works both with standard clients and custom Asterisk client. If there is a separation in layers then I assume there will be two copies of the VM?

I'm also not seeing where Exchange fits into this.. How is this Exchange account created or managed and is there another set of credentials being used to interact here? Surely, this isn't tied directly into Asterisk with the same username/pass?

Anyhow, some quick Googling shows it's possible with..

Asterisk .Net (AGI) and some remoting with the server that has MS Exchange.. (Mono compatible and you've also got cross platform).. I have no access to an Exchange server and if you subtract the amounts from contributors wanting it tied into MS Exchange you're down to a pretty meager amount... The other requirement for it to be committed CVS.. I've yet to make a commit so dunno what the process here is.. (Asterisk-dev here I subscribe :P)

Feedback, ideas and or corrections?

C.
