As someone else mentioned, if you want a text message I'd have asterisk send an email to an email-SMS gateway, you'll probably want to trim the email message down and prevent an attachment though. If you want an actual phone call, I have a series of scripts I use to call a person when a new voicemail is left. I use the vmnotify option in voicemail.conf to call a script that checks if the number of messages in the inbox is greater than the last time it was called (so a user doesn't get a call after they check their messages) and if so, create a call file to contact them and automatically connect them to the voice mail system. If you want it I can send it to you. -Dave _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
