[asterisk-users] MWI and 1.6.1

[Matt Watson]

Hi Dave,

Thought I'd give you an update - I completely rebuilt my astdb the other
night by renaming it, having * recreate it and then re-creating all my
custom entries in it.

Didn't have any effect, I had somebody report false MWI notifications again
earlier this morning.
