I'm supposed to have a "mostly" canned script that will do this done
already. It will pull the list of people to call out of a db and play
them the file specified in the db table. Contact me offlist if you're
interested. It will be done real soon but I'm not done testing yet.

You actually aren't far from it. If the system only needs to play the
same file to each person, a simple script can be used to pull from a
database and create call files. Asterisk will use the call files to
place the calls and play a sound. A few minutes of searching on that
should get you started. I haven't seen anyone else have a canned
script ready to go, but would like to know if anyone does.

*Subject:* [Asterisk-Users] Dialer
Hello All,
I am having trouble finding a specific * piece of software so I
thought I would see If you guys can help me get my terminology clear.
First off let me premise this with "no, this is absolutely not for
doing call marketing".
I need to make my Asterisk box call a group of people and play
them a message.
My company deals with education so we need to do follow ups if
students are not logging on.
We do this manually now but it would be easier and cheaper to just
play them a message.
What is the term I should be looking for? I keep thinking "auto
dialer" or something like that but I am not quite getting there.
Any help would be appreciated. I have been learning a bit of Perl
so I was thinking I could auto generate and AGI file and then just
do a Play() of the mp3 when they pick up at the other end? Seems
a little kludge though.
Thanks,
Wiley
