Any ideas on how asterisk could accept an email (such as an email to SMS or
"[email protected]" sort of thing) and make a phone
call to a specific number and make an announcement?
I imagine the first part is the big question.
Stuffing this logic into Asterisk really isn't practical. You can write
something external that is invoked when receiving an email (this depends
on the mail server in use) or something that continually checks for new
email in a mailbox. Once received you would parse it as appropriate and
use one of the available mechanisms of Asterisk (CLI originate, AMI
originate) to initiate the call.
All the pieces exist, you just need to put them together.
