I have the same experience.  I believe it is because
the telco (Telewest in my case) does not use or provide “Disconnect
Supervision”.   Not being a telecoms engineer and as I don’t
know one I can can’t test the veracity of this belief.  I have
called Telewest  to ask them to enable disconnect supervision but no one
seemed to know anything about it.

Hi all,





 





I have an issue with my system and the phone company
(Alltel).  If someone goes into any mailbox on the server to leave a
message, once they hang up on their side the system is not detecting this and will
sit there and record until you get the standard message from the phone company
"If you'd like to make a call, please hangup and try again", which is
preceded by the fast busy tone.





 





Since I never had this problem with any of my equipment in
another state, I feel it's either the wiring in the building OR it is a problem
in the phone companies equipment.






Any hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  As a side note
I've tried this with a simply answering machine and it acts the same way. 






 





Thanks,





Ken

You can have voicemail disconnect after a 
predetermined amount of silence in voicemail.conf.
maxsilence=5
silencethreshold=128
