[Asterisk-Users] compression quality of wav voicemail attachments

[asterisk at billheckel.com]

I get the smaller WAV ( MS compatible gsm compressed format ) files emailed with this config.  I 
don't want to create the wav (uncompressed format) files but it only works if I keep them.

My working kludge config is thus:
format=WAV|wav49|gsm
