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?
2) With this system can users manipulate messages via the telephone set?
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?
Thanks,Steve
I would also be interested in this answer.
We have the Cisco Unity software but have not had the time to get it working yet.

We are also using asterisk.
Yes.
We are set up with an internal extension to dail for voicemail, and and external (PSTN) number to call. both of which gives a dtmf interface. Voicemails can be listened to through the dail in interface and recieved via email attachment.
Thanks,Steve

Yes. I have sems installed but that fact that it only delivers via email and that it doesn't seem to support a lead number for call in from off campus is what prompted my message. I didn't realize this is how sems worked.
For our campus deployment we need a voice mail service that more closely resembles our existing system.
that is my understanding also.

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.
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.
We provision a number to call into voicemail.

It depends. We have a well known, single number for accessing voice mail. If you are calling from your on campus extension a call to the voicemail number dumps you into your mailbox. Otherwise you get the general greeting and a chance to select a mailbox and sign-in.
Our users like this because many people interact with the mailbox while away from their desks. Of course if we implement a find-me function in the proxy then users may not need to access the voicemail system in the same fashion. Time will tell.

We are the creators of OpenUMS/ConvergePro. It is an opensource Unified Messaging server that goes far beyond the features of Asterisk voicemail. http://www.convergepro.com or https://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxvm/ It was written 100% in PERL to allow for easy updates and extension.
It is designed to work with Dialogic cards and traditional PBX's.
We are porting it over to the next version of SEMS for the SER community and eventually to a standard SIP interface for everyone else. We will be looking for beta testers in about 2-3 weeks. Please let me know if anyone is interested by emailing me at 'mdarnell at servpac.com'
Yes, see a version of the user guide http://www.convergepro.com/files/voiecmail_nodid.pdf With a server level integration, when you delete a message through the telephone interface it moves the message from your inbox to your deleted items...no need to delete messages twice
We publish a 7 digit number, if people have Cisco 79XX we use the dialplan to allow them to dial three digits, and the system recognizes the phone they came from, there is a setting to allow them to auto-login, or to challenge them with a password.
