The old variables will continue to work in this version, albeit with a deprecation warning. +* If you use any interface for modifying voicemail aside from the built in + dialplan applications, then the option "pollmailboxes" *must* be set in + voicemail.conf for message waiting indication (MWI) to work properly. This + is because Voicemail notification is now event based instead of polling + based. The channel drivers are no longer responsible for constantly manually + checking mailboxes for changes so that they can send MWI information to users. + Examples of situations that would require this option are web interfaces to + voicemail or an email client in the case of using IMAP storage. + +Applications: + * ChanIsAvail() now has a 't' option, which allows the specified device to be queried for state without consulting the channel drivers. This performs mostly a 'ChanExists' sort of function. |
