Well this is because of the submenu that digium added. we are working to fix 
them in the ports.
asterisk and asterisk addons.

I have beens asking Maximum Sobila to please rm the mpg123 from the port but 
he has refused to respond oto emails. and I have to manualy edit the port 
every time O do a port snap to rm the mpg123 build and run deps from the 
asterisk make file.

email on the pbx box is used for 1 thing sending out emails with vm 
atachments. If you need mail then put it on a 2nd system

Right now I include the ThirdLane gui wich I think is the best out there. no 
its no free or open sounce . But you get what you pay for with it. you get 
support. If something breaks you can report it and it will get fixed is a 
timly manor.  also the fact its the only 1 of 2 I know that supports freebsd.

I will be adding a option for the digium gui also . but it lacks alot. and I 
dont feel is ready for prime time use.
