Hi Tilghman. Thanks for your response. I just posted another message to the list concerning this. The long and short of it was that I need to call an external program to turn MWI on and off on my legacy PBX phones. The script I wrote creates a call file and then Asterisk calls the PBX and sends the MWI on/off DTMF codes. The externnotify parameter in voicemail.conf specifies a program to call when something interesting happens in the VoiceMail[Main] application. Apparently that script does not get called when Asterisk does its poll and notices a change. I just wanted to confirm that behavior before embarking on a kludge to take care of my issue. Thanks!
