Flip back a couple post and see the one where i included the
anseringmachine app, it can detect silence and noise, it was
particularly ment for leaving people messages to old school answeting
machines :)

I've been using asterisk as my PBX for a few months successfully, but
I would like to start to use some of the more advanced features in it.
I saw this website
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+auto-dial+out+deliver+message
that explains how to create an auto dialer and deliver a message. My
question is, does asterisk wait for silence before starting the
message? How would this work if an answering machine picks up?
Our previous, proprietary, voice mail system did this for us. It would
dial out and repeat a prompt. it was something like "I have a message
for mailbox nnnn, press * to retrieve the message" Then it prompted
for login and would give me the voice mail menu. If you have a choice
I would recommend prompting the user. If no one logged in the call
would drop.
I don't do that now because I'm out of the office far less often. Now
I just send a notification to my black berry.
