[asterisk-users] Voice mail "maxmessage " setting per mail box

[Danny Nicholas]

FYI, you could run a second, third, 4th, etc. asterisk on the same box with
the sole purpose of the "other" asterisks being to serve up the IAX
connection and custom voicemail capability.  Or the "second" asterisk could
run an AGI to reload voicemail.conf for each caller, changing maxmessage on
an individual or group basis.  I do a similar thing with AMI - I keep it
turned off except for 10 min each morning when I enable to do line testing.

Hi Danny,

Thanks for the tip, although a second instance of asterisk, in our
environment, could very well mean additional hardware to offer this
feature for a select few users. In some cases users want variable
options, leaving 30 minute long VM's, some 10 minutes long, and for the
most part 3 minutes is sufficient. For each defined length of time,
would require a new instance of asterisk to offer the maxmessage setting
requested.

Thanks again for the tip/work around.

Thanks
Bruce
