[asterisk-users] Stuck Voicemails?

[Bruce Komito]

We used to have this problem with 1.2, too.  I think it was some timing
thing that resulted from the caller hanging up at just the right (or
should I say, wrong) moment, like after the min-message-len timer.  I
won't tell you what we did to fix it, because you don't want to hear about
upgrading to 1.4!
