[asterisk-users] Asterisk Autodialer

Tue Aug 25 11:07:04 CDT 2009

Here is my .02;  There are basically (but not only) two ways to "auto-dial"
from asterisk.  You can use Asterisk Manager or create a set of call files
to use the pbx_spool function.  I'm more familiar with the latter.  If you
"dump" a set of call files, Asterisk will try to do them all at once and
respool them until it can satisfy the request.  You can "help" by touching
the files with a future date so * will try to process them more smoothly.
There is a reasonably nice PERL module called Asterisk::Outgoing, but you'll
have to tweak it to use the time functionality.

Alex,

You are right. My questions are probably wide open. I probably would have
more specific. Any help I get would be great; if not I will figure it out
myself :).

Steve, Geraint - It was kind of you both to respond back. Thanks guys for
your response.  :)

I am dCAP trained but just like anything else you do not get
everything/anything you want from there.

Anyways I checked VOIP-info.org the information there was pretty basic. I
was trying to get some more insight to this autodialer stuff. If there is
something I can take leverage of that will be great (because I do not want
reinvent the wheel) or else (as sadi before) I will figure out. 

Thanks,
Sanjoy.
