>Turn off voicemail on his cell phone, give out his DID instead of his cell #. >Send an SMS to his cellphone when new voicemail is left. That's what we do now. Works fine.
>As far as Dial()ing his cell goes, use 'r' (this is exactly what it's designed >for) so that when the carrier is saying "The person you're calling is out of >the calling area or has his phone off" all the caller hears is ringing. That appears to work *perfectly* but I don't get it. With the 'r' option on, how can Asterisk determine that the user has answered the phone as opposed to the carrier? Is it a signal that the carrier is sending? Anyway, thanks. Works like a hot damn. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
