[asterisk-users] Check for the voicemail

[Roberto Piola]

Ok: this is the complete recipe.

first, make a sendmail.cf configuration file so that you are sure that
sendmail tries to deliver directly to your server, and not to spool
the file locally in order to send it later.

cp /etc/mail/sendmail.cf /etc/mail/direct-delivery-sendmail.cf
vi +/^DS /etc/mail/direct-delivery-sendmail.cf
end modify the line that begins with DS (for smart relay host) into:
DSyour.exchange.server.name

save and then write a script like this:

#!/bin/bash
# this is the location of the temporary file for redirecting stdout-
anything unique will go
TEMPFILE=/dev/shm/checkeddelivery.$$
/usr/lib/sendmail -v -g -C  /etc/mail/direct-delivery-sendmail.cf  $*
2>&1 >/dev/shm/checkeddelivery.$$
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
  .... do domething: sendmail returned an immediate local error
elif [ $( grep -c ^250\\.2\\.0\\.0 $TEMPFILE) == 0 ]; then
  .... something: sendmail did not get a "250 2.0.0 OK message" from
the remote server
  .... just check that your.exchange.server.name answers wth "250
2.0.0 OK", or adjust the script accordingly
 ... here you can also check for some different errors and behave
differently for over quota,
fi
#on the first runs, you may leave the file in order to inspect it
rm $TEMPFILE


and invoke the script as:
myscript recipientaddress
piping over standard input the complete mail you want to send (not
only the .wav attachment)
