Description:We have seen several times that empty audio files are stored in mailboxes on the system.  That is, GSM files of zero size and WAV/wav files holding only a file header.

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

When you try to listen to voice mail, these greatly upset ast_streamfile / app_voicemail, apparently, and causes Asterisk to hang up on the user.

app_voicemail should probably check for the fiels not containing any audio after recording them, and remove them again if they are empty.

How can you duplicate this.  I tried duplicate this and cant.

I see this sometimes when dialing a SIP extension with X-Lite and then hanging up in the right moment (around the beep of the voicemail notification after which I am supposed to leave my message). Configured voicemail formats are gsm and wav49 only, but I think that doesn't matter.

By the way I also remember a vm patch that was supposed to eliminate "too short" voicemail messages. Not sure if that is already in the CVS.

Any way we can break out the short message stuff for now into a standalone patch?  I might look into it later this week.
