The voicemail.conf file

In the last article we’ve explained what goes into the voicemail.conf file. Here is an example configuration:

[general]
format=wav49|wav
serveremail=voice@geek-university.local
attach=yes
maxsilence=20
maxmessage=200
[zonemessages]
berlin=Europe/Berlin|'vm-received' Q 'digits/at' R
[default]
444 => 2587,Antun Peicevic,tuna@geek-university.com

Reload the voicemail configuration by running the voicemail reload command from the Asterisk CLI. You can display the configured mailboxes with the voicemail show users command:

Now that we have the voicemail.conf file set up, we need to integrate our voicemail system with applications that enable us to leave and read voicemail messages.
