[asterisk-users] RFE idea for VM application

[Danny Nicholas]

You don’t state which version this is for, but it seems like a simple patch would be for voicemail to play sorry-mailbox-full.wav (standard sound).  In lieu of all that, you could do a quick-and-dirty AGI to read /v/l/a/m and play the message back since voicemail is one of the larger modules and therefore prone to a better chance of error introduction on an RFE.  PSOT – the Unix Bot thing was pretty cool.

Subject: [asterisk-users] RFE idea for VM application

 

Hello all,

we are using IMAP for the storage of VMs and had a user yesterday his their maxmsg limit (default 100) and was wondering why nobody could leave them messages.  I see in /var/log/asterisk/messages that it does write out a warning message of:

ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Unable to leave message since we will exceed the maximum number of messages allowed (%u >= %u)\n", msgnum, vmu->maxmsg);

but I was wondering how feasible it would be to modify the code to add:

1) the mailbox name of the user whom has hit the limit
2) a warning/critical threshold that the user is getting close to the limit

using whatever monitoring tool one has available eg. OSSEC the alert could be trapped and the user notified.

Is this worthy of an RFE? and possible help from people if I try and create the patch myself ?

Thoughts or insults ?

Thanks, Phil
