Hi! Thanks for your suggestions.

How easy is it to use the A and B number of the incoming calls in certain scripts (e.g. are functions present to read them and use them for further operation)
I have not worked with AGI scripts before and probably need to have a look at this. Is the AGI capable of doing the issues as you described them below?


Cheers, Jeroen

PS: Andrew, handling password is not required, an A number analysis is sufficient (environment is 'secured')

Scenario:
All incoming calls are voicemail calls however the dialled number (called party) does not necessarily have a voicemailbox configured in the Asterisk system.



You could:


- configure a set of temporary mailboxes in voicemail.conf

- direct a caller without mailbox to such a temporary box and record his name somehow (either in the Asterisk Db, or using an AGI script)

- after (or at the beginning of the next) call run a clean-up script that 1. renames the voicemail directory and 2. re-creates the temporary mailbox using plain simple shell commands through System(), and 3. modifies voicemail.conf and 4. reloads asterisk (for voicemail.conf I *think* you don't need a restart).

I am not sure why you wouldn't want to use a database for voicemail.conf, but I think it can be done rather easily without.

Cheers, Philipp
