[Asterisk-Users] How to find out if a new voicemail exists

[Koopmann, Jan-Peter]

Hi,

I would like to see if during a call a new voicemail was recorded. I want to send a SMS to mobile phones if someone recorded a message on our voicemail system.

I can use VMCOUNT to see if there are new messages in the Inbox but this will result in new SMS being sent even if the caller hangs up during the Voicemailpromt, at least if there are still unread/unheard messages in the inbox.

Is there some option or variable I missed or is this a feature request?

Kind regards,
  JP
