[asterisk-users] voicemail not sending emails

[Jose Flores Galicia]

That's right.
msmtp behave different depending on the user that invokes de command.
I suppose you are running asterisk like root or asterisk user so the config
file must be /root/.msmtprc or /home/asterisk/.msmtprc.
Also, as david notice, in the voicemail.conf line
>mailcmd=/opt/local/bin/msmtp -t ; --from blah
all that comes after ; are ignored when parsed by asterisk.

I suggest you to configure a default account on your "System configuration
file" for msmtp, you can found the path to the file if you make "msmtp
--version" from command line.

This is how my configuration file looks like:

#Config file for msmpt
#Default values for all accounts
defaults
logfile /var/log/msmtp.log

# Main Account
account aspinet
host mail.megamailservers.com
from someone at mail.com
auth MD5
user someone at mail.com
password mostseecretpassword

# Set a default account
account default : aspinet


Adn in voicemail.conf
add
mailcmd=/usr/bin/msmtp -t

Also you can try to configure sendmail for smtp relay with your ISP
This doc was very useful when I try it.
