[asterisk-users] Time Based Voicemail Messages
Hi, I want to change my voicemail message based on the time of day. I would like a message that says Sorry the office is now closed. after a certain time, and says Sorry I am unavailable / Busy / etc before. I have come up with two ways of doing it: 1. A cron job to replace the files (messy) 2. Using different mailboxes at the different times (this means I have 2 mailboxes to check). Is there a way that the voicemail could be enhanced by adding a feature like this?

Just use two different contexts for the two times of day (open/closed) and use Playback to play the correct message before going direct into voicemail without any prompt.

Isn't that covered in point 2? Admittedly, I did not consider using Playback rather than voicemail to play the message. But you didn't point that out anyway. a lil bit of googling wud have answered you Tim.

No, you can have 2 mailboxes for different times like this: in extensions.conf: exten = s,1,Voicemail([EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED],u); for day exten = s,1,Voicemail([EMAIL PROTECTED],u);for night in voicemail.conf: = ,User User,,,delete=yes = ,User User,,,delete=no now you only have to check the voicemail for mailbox Is there a way that the voicemail could be enhanced by adding a feature like this?

Re: [asterisk-users] Time Based Voicemail Messages
What you *could* do is record one greeting as the unavailable message and another as the busy message and during the day, just play the unavailable one and at night play the busy one...
