[asterisk-users] send voicemail to multiple emails

[Andrew Thomas]

One of those points being to turn off a MWI if the total number of msgs
reaches 0.

Not everyone uses the same extension number for the user as for the
device they are on (think hot-desking).

I'm glad you got it to work your way :)

The point of it is to run whenever there is a potential change in state.
It runs after someone checks voicemail, because checking voicemail can
clear new messages (or change the number of new messages).  You are
certainly welcome, in the external notification script to exit early, if
you determine that further action is not necessary.

The idea that we even need an extra flag for this is ridiculous.  If
there is that much penalty in starting up another script instance,
you're using the wrong scripting language or the wrong machine.
