Sorry for the late reply, school has started again so I am not in the
office as much. I also remove all the old postings I didn't need and
also deleted mine, so if there were any before this with questions that
I still haven't answered, let me know.

If you look at the sample configs, you'll find:

in the sip.conf.samples for v1.2 stable. That is the only way that I
know of to turn on the mwi for two different phones (eg, extensions).
Is that what you're using and its not working?
I think that is the opposite of what Kevin is trying to do. The above
config is for one phone monitoring multiple voicemail boxes. Kevin
wants multiple (two) phones monitoring the same mailbox, i.e. he is
probably specifying the same mailbox within the config for each of
the phones that will be monitoring that mailbox.
Yes, John is correct, I would like two phones to monitor the same
mailbox. I know Rich you asked what type of phones I am using. They are
both Polycom IP 601's firmware 1.6.2. I have the update for 1.6.7 but I
haven't applied it yet since I want to be sure it isn't Asterisk or a
configuration before I upgraded to potentially more problems.
I'm not sure why there would be any problems with that. Kevin, have
you tried just having one phone at a time do the monitoring, to make
sure there aren't any problems with the phone's config? When one
misses a notification, is it always the same phone that misses it?
It's interesting that the problem is intermittent, it would seem that
if Asterisk doesn't support this that it would only notify one phone
each time and that the results would be consistant.
Yes, all of our phones (pretty much did a cookie-cutter configuration)
monitor their own mail box, this is the only setup with one. Actually a
point of clarification on my first post. The phones are actually will be
watching 3 mail boxes total. 2 phones, covering 3 mailboxes. The phones
do work if I just assign them one box only.
Here is what the configuration looks like for one of the phones, the
other is 284:
[283](Empire-Defaults)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[283a](Empire-Defaults)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[283b](Empire-Defaults)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
The 'a' and 'b' are for the other lines that are watching the voicemail.
When they want to check say mail box 285, then press the 3rd soft-button
on the phone and it dials from 283b. The voicemail function checks for
the letter in the callerid and logs them into the correct mail box.
Which looks like this:
exten => 86*,1,Answer()
exten => 86*,n,Wait(1)
exten => 86*,n,gotoif,$[${CALLERID(num):-1}=a]?ServiceMail:NextTest
exten => 86*,n(NextTest),gotoif,$[${CALLERID(num):-1}=b]?PartsMail:SalesMail
exten => 86*,n(SalesMail),VoiceMailMain([EMAIL PROTECTED])
exten => 86*,n(ServiceMail),VoiceMailMain([EMAIL PROTECTED])
exten => 86*,n(PartsMail),VoiceMailMain([EMAIL PROTECTED])
exten => 86*,n,HangUp()
Phones don't monitor mailboxes. One needs to tell asterisk "which"
phones are to be notified when a voicemail is left, and the sip
statements above are the only ones that I'm aware of to accomplish that.
On many phones, there is only "one" mwi function. If Kevin has one
extn (eg, 111) on a phone set up with a mwi and then a second extn
(eg, 222) on the same phone set up for mwi, one extn's mwi might turn
the indicator on while the second extn will turn it right back off
again. Since I don't recall Kevin saying what type of phone he's
using, I can only guess that might be the problem.
Correct me if I am wrong, but from what I read, I can have at least one
mwi for each line. I am not really if I can list more or not. Which is
why I did the above with the multiple lines.
Its either that, or, my original comment above regarding the sip
definitions.
