Chapter 8. Voicemail

Just leave a message, maybe I’ll call.

Joe Walsh

Before email and instant messaging became ubiquitous, voicemail was a popular method of electronic messaging. Even though most people now prefer text-based messaging systems, voicemail remains an essential component of any PBX.

Asterisk has a reasonably flexible voicemail system named Comedian Mail.1 Voicemail in Asterisk is provided in the dialplan by the app_voicemail.so module.
