And it works best with a version that has not even been released yet, although it's also fully functional with the most recent released version.

It speaks IMAP to the server, and also uses temporary files much like the ODBC storage code does.

In response to the OP, there is no need to 'install' a non-Debian package to support this (although obviously you are already doing that, since SVN trunk Asterisk is not an Asterisk package). Asterisk does not require c-client to be _installed_ at all; you can just unpack and build it in a directory, then tell the configure script where it is. Since c-client only provides a static library, it is linked into app_voicemail.so and then the c-client directory is not needed any longer.
