prompts within the Voicemail application by changing them in voicemail.conf
* Added the ability for the "voicemail show users" CLI command to show users
configured by the dynamic realtime configuration method.
+ * MWI (Message Waiting Indication) handling has been significantly
+ restructured internally to Asterisk. It is now totally event based
+ instead of polling based. The voicemail application will notify other
+ modules that have subscribed to MWI events when something in the mailbox
+ changes.
+ This also means that if any other entity outside of Asterisk is changing
+ the contents of mailboxes, then the voicemail application still needs to
+ poll for changes. Examples of situations that would require this option
+ are web interfaces to voicemail or an email client in the case of using
+ IMAP storage. So, two new options have been added to voicemail.conf
+ to account for this: "pollmailboxes" and "pollfreq". See the sample
+ configuration file for details.
