[Asterisk-Users] Needed - Pager notification script

[James Armstrong]

I have one also that just does nag paging. It looks up the extension in 
the db and gets the pagers to notify. Sets x number of attempts and if a 
user checks his messages it will clear the remainder of the pager 
attempts. Written in perl. Not a daemon, uses the run_external_notify. 
Sends one message immediately with the message and caller id info, the 
nag pages are sent with just 'Mailbox xxx has y messages'.

I would be interested in looking at the daemon version.
