Hi All,

This is my first posting and if am asking dumb questions please
let me apologize. I'm in no way a telephony or pbx expert. I have
tried googling for answers but can't seem to find the answers I need.
Probably because I'm not using the right words.

I have installed [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.0 which uses Asterisk 1.2.

Everything appears to be running great with two exceptions:

1) On outbound dialing it appears that about 50% of the time the
   leading dial digit is lost by the phone company. I have 8 analog
   lines connected into two digium TDM400P cards.
   I think Asterisk is dialing the number before the carrier (SBC)
   is ready. Is there a way to create a delay in the dialing to allow
   SBC to be ready to take the dialing? Kind of like the "w" command
in modem dialing. If so, what do I need to put and in which configuration
   file?

In AMP, edit your zap trunk(s) and add a 'w' to 'Outbound Dial Prefix'. This will prepend a 'w' onto all outgoing calls on those trunks. I have the same problem as you and this solves it.


2) Is there a way to increase the volume of received vmail in email? I've
tried listening to them on 2 different PCs and a laptop. Even with volume
   turned up all the way, they are very faint.

I haven't tried this yet, but in 1.2 there is a new feature to the voicemail application. From the CLI type 'show application voicemail' and you'll see:

g(#) - Use the specified amount of gain when recording the voicemail
          message. The units are whole-number decibels (dB).

Cheers,
kevin
