[asterisk-users] Email from Dialplan

[C F]

I have this:
exten => s,n,System(/root/sendemail.sh shmaltz at gmail.com
"${STRFTIME(,,%c)}" "${CALLERID(name)} ${CALLERID(num)}" ${EPOCH})
/root/sendemail.sh:

#!/bin/sh

#$1 email address
#$2 time
#$3 CallerID
#$4 EPOCH
TMPFILE=/root/tmpemails/$4

echo "TO: "$1 >> $TMPFILE
echo "Subject: New call" >> $TMPFILE
echo ""
echo "Just wanted to let you know, you received a new call at "$2",
from "$3"." >> $TMPFILE
echo "" >> $TMPFILE
echo "Thank you" >> $TMPFILE
echo "" >> $TMPFILE
echo "." >> $TMPFILE

/usr/sbin/sendmail $1 < $TMPFILE
rm $TMPFILE

hope this helps, make sure sendmail is configured to send emails, if
emails from voicemail.conf works right then this should work too.
