[Asterisk-Dev] MySQL SIP and Message Waiting Indication

[Matthew Boehm]

The MySQL support in Asterisk 1.0.* is considered deprecated and probably
won't be "fixed". The suggestion is to move to RealTime in Asterisk 1.1 (or
is it gonna be 2.0?). But MWI in RealTime doesn't work right now.

You might consider posting this to the -users list as many more people there
use MYSQL_FRIENDS
