[Asterisk-Users] Sending DTMF after recording new voicemail

[Nichols, Andrew]

Umar,

Thanks for the response. I think I understand how externnotify can be
used to create a call file. But, I don't see how that this can be used
for turning off MWI after messages have been viewed. Do you have an
example of how you accomplished this that you'd be willing to share?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

You can use the externnotify feature of voice mail to create a call file
when a voice mail is left or retrieved. 

This can in turn be used to turn on or off the message lamp. 

I use the externnotify feature to execute an application that I wrote in
freepascal to send sip notification messages to an external system.
