I want to use Asterisk as a general message delivery system here.
That is, I want to be able to have a (shell, perl, etc.) script on my
Asterisk server dial an extension, wait for it to be answered and then
play a sound file and then hang up, or even wait for a response or
reactions to some IVR.

AGI and AMI is what you need for this.
AMI is for originating the call between extensions
AGI for playing file of your choice.
Both these APIs are well documented

Have a look at the call files examples of voipinfo

Its not too hard to do what you want
Cheers Duncan
