Forgot to mention that the boss likes to call in and dictate to the secretary on the voicemail system. (so the maximum message length was set to 3600 seconds) If I'm reading correctly AbsoluteTimeout() would limit the length of the call to whatever value is set. If that's 60 seconds, the max length of the vm message would essentially be 60 seconds. That won't work for this solution. I'll try silence detection in the voicemail.conf file because so far, that seems like the "best" solution. Another option would be to force the boss to call in on the analog line that we have dedicated to Asterisk for any dictations.
