Hello:
I'm interested in how this community is providing voicemail service
to IP phone users registered to a SER proxy. If you can speak to this
point I'd appreciate any feedback you can provide. Specifically I'm
interested in:
1) What product is providing voice mail service?
An alternative to sems is Asterisk, which is a full open source PBX. In
our installation we are only using it as a voicemail server.
2) With this system can users manipulate messages via
the
telephone set?
Yes, via a separate dial in number. It also is configured to email
voicemail to users. Asterisk writes voicemail to per-user directories,
so it is also easy to provide web access to voicemail.
I imagine that it would not be difficult to configure/modify sems to
provide these same services.
3) If the answer to #2 is yes then how is this
functionality
implemented. Do you provision a lead number for users
to call into voicemail?
We provision a number to call into voicemail.
