Title: voicemail notification pb
Post by: edeganay on February 06, 2008, 01:04:34 PM

Hello there,

I'd like to be able to send the messages left in voicemails to users by email.
I know this is possible, but the server is sending the email to the right (outside) email address, but with a wrong enveloppe, which makes SMTP refuse the mail.

Let me explain more :
 a client is calling extension 5002, nobody here, then leaves a message on the voicemail. an email has to be sent on the external email address of the user of extension 5002 (let's say tata@gmail.com)

Asterisk (or selintra I don't know), creates a msg, and send it as anonymous@myserver.mydomain.local, and of course, gmail doesn't like this.

yes, the domain of my server is mydomain.local, and that's fine because I'm not using qmail and horde with this SME (and I don't have internal mail server)

how can I change this ?

Thanks in advance.
edd

sail-2.2.1-587
Asterisk 1.4 something (the one which comes with the upper)

Hi Edeganay

You set this in each extension.  Edit the extension and fill out the e-mail address in the "User to Receive E-mail" box.

See here

Kind Regards

I didn't find the right words then.

The problem doesn't come from the email address to send to, but the email address FROM it comes, which is anonymous@myserver.mydomain.local

am I clear ?

Thanks anyway,
Edd

ah,

Sorry, I did not read properly.

you can set

serveremail => mail@mydomain.com

in headers->voicemail.conf

For a list of all voicemail parameters in voicemail.conf see here

It’s been years since I played with Asterisk/Trixbox behind the Firewall, looks like the same principles apply with Sail.
gmail is looking at the 'Return-Path' in the email header, not 'From' which is changed by editing the servermail option.

Add this to /etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf (change the email address to FQDN)
mailcmd=/usr/sbin/sendmail -v -t -f tata_at_gmail.com

and edit
serveremail=tata_at_gmail.com

should look like this in the [general] section
[general]
format=wav49
serveremail=tata_at_gmail.com
mailcmd=/usr/sbin/sendmail -v -t -f tata_at_gmail.com
attach=yes
maxmessage=300
maxgreet=30
minmessage=2
maxsilence=6
operator=yes
callback=internal

then set the voicemail extention email to ie: tata_at_gmail.com via server-manager

restart asterisk for the changes
# /etc/init.d/asterisk restart


The changes WILL be overwriten with signal-event, so a template is needed for them to stick. (Sing out if need a hand)

Let us know how you go...

Regards
Steve

no need for a template

change the e-mail header in headers=>voicemail.conf

signal event will catch this and replicate it through

why did I not think of that?

ah, yes...was doing things the old fashion [long] way. Lots of catching up to do  ;)
