In the meanwhile I had the occasion to test and install Tycho.

1. Easy installation
2. Easy configuration
3. Works fast
4. When deleting a voicemail via the phone, the message list shown in Tycho is updated automatically almost instantly, which is cool.

--> Nice solution.

If I may say so, an extra feature which would make the solution complete is to have the possibility to delete a message by clicking on a URL displayed in the voicemail message notification. This will however require an improvement of your XML API.

Assume that the URL in the email displays:

http://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd/vmxml/voicemail.php?folder=INBOX&action=deletemessage&msg=msg0001

When clicking on this link, the voicemail will be deleted.

BUT if msg0000 was previously deleted by asterisk there is an issue because asterisk (at least the one I have been using in this test, 1.07) seems to renumber all voicemail messages. This means msg0001 becomes msg0000 and msg0002 becomes msg0001. As a result when clicking on the link in the email you will in fact be deleting msg0002 (!!!).

In short, you could improve your API by deleting a message based upon a unique identifier (for example origtime) instead of the message ID.

... my 2 cents

did not yet took the time to evaluate Tycho, but the Voicemail XML server side scripts are very helpfull. The source code is rather self-explanatory ... but it could be even more helpfull if you could provide us with some documentation on the usage of this API.

The docs are somewhat basic but 90% complete. I will finish them
start of next week. Check the website for an update of the vmxml
docs. Ill post a followup in this thread when complete.

cheers,
