Customizing the Email on trixbox Voice Mail to Email

Here is the documentation I made for customizing the email sent by the trixbox when sending voicemail to email. Click Read More...

To change the body of the email sent by the voicemail to email function:

Edit vm_email.inc by doing Config Edit, /etc/asterisk.
- The default file is (No line breaks):

; Change the email body, variables: VM_NAME, VM_DUR, VM_MSGNUM, VM_MAILBOX, VM_CALLERID, VM_DATE

emailbody=${VM_NAME},\n\nThere is a new voicemail in mailbox ${VM_MAILBOX}:\n\n\tFrom:\t${VM_CALLERID}\n\tLength:\t${VM_DUR} seconds\n\tDate:\t${VM_DATE}\n\nDial *98 to access your voicemail by phone.\nVisit http://AMPWEBADDRESS/recordings/index.php to check your voicemail with a web browser.\n

I’ll change it to:

; Change the email body, variables: VM_NAME, VM_DUR, VM_MSGNUM, VM_MAILBOX, VM_CALLERID, VM_DATE

emailbody=${VM_NAME},\n\nYou have a new voicemail in mailbox ${VM_MAILBOX}:\n\n\tFrom:\t${VM_CALLERID}\n\tLength:\t${VM_DUR} seconds\n\tDate:\t${VM_DATE}\n\nYou may listen to the enclosed attachment, dial *98 to access your voicemail by phone, or click the following link to use a web browser.\n http://yourdomainorip.com/recordings/index.php \n\nSincerely,\n\nExodus Technologies\n417-459-4569\nwww.yourexodus.com
