[asterisk-users] Voicemail personalised greetings using DB/IMAP backend?

[Ray Jackson]

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your response.  That answers a few questions I had.  I am 
very happy to get involved in this area if I can help.  Using IMAP and 
REALTIME I have a really nice VM solution with MWI, Webmail access etc. 
and it scales horizontally - I just add a new server into the mix when 
necessary.  Until we get a generlized storage subsystem in place, I may 
look at a 'hack' to get the personalised greetings going... Do you think 
a shared NFS mount is risky for this?  Should I do an rsync periodically 
perhaps to keep greetings on all servers up to date with each other?

Thanks again.
Ray
