Hi,

You're right :  few minutes after posting this question, I saw  that
"mailbox=9163" line was missing and that adding this line solved this.

Anyway, my 1st question remains as "voicemail show users" was somehow
misleading for me :
- on one hand, I've a notice telling "Received SIP subscribe for peer
without mailbox: 9163"
- on the other hand, "voicemail show users" shows something I understood as
"mailbox exists".

Now that root cause is found, would you say that warnings or CLI should have
been different ?

Obviously, MWI subscriptions must come from SIP hardphones (at least those
supporting MWI feature).
So in this case, "Received SIP subscribe for peer without mailbox: 9163"
rather means "Asterisk is receiving from SIP/9163, subscriptions to MWI, but
nothing in peer SIP/9163 settings is describing which mailbox should be the
scope of such subscriptions".

Do you agree ?
