[Asterisk-Dev] Voicemail locking

[Brian West]

I don't like that due to the same reason I don't stick every email in  
the database its not really efficient as the file system.  The file  
system is in essence a database.  But if we use something like  
Maildir then we can mesh email, fax and voicemail into one spool that  
can be accessed via imap, phone or pop3 really its the most elegant  
way to do it.
