[Asterisk-Users] * -> SMS w/out PSTN (dialplan confusion)

[Mark Charlton]

Normally yes, but if you set attach=yes in the voicemail.conf you get the
voice mail message attached to the email message.

Thanks
Mark

 From what I understand the voice mail is not actually sent to the user via
email.. a link to it is.
They have to log in and listen to the message.  If you delete the voice mail
it probably won't work.
I'm a newbie but I think that is the problem.
