Description:When Asterisk sends a pager e-mail advising of a new voicemail via the pager e-mail address field, the e-mail always shows up as from "Asterisk PBX", line 1034, app_voicemail.c.  It does not appear that pager emails are using the "fromstring" parameter in voicemail.conf as does sending regular voicemail notification e-mails.

I'm not sure we really want to use that full from address in that field, maybe add another?

Sure, maybe "pagerfromstring"?  Should we also add an equavalent "serveremail" field as well?  This field is currently being used when a pager e-mail is sent.

tgrman21, do you want a config option to specify who has sent the voicemail, or have the from line be the caller id info. please elobarate

thanks

At present, when Asterisk sends a pager e-mail, the "From:" field is hardcoded to the following: "From: Asterisk PBX <voicemail@company.com>", where company.com is variable based on the FQDN of the server.  I propose we have a configuration file option which will allow the "From:" field contents to be specified in voicemail.conf.  This could either be populated with the callerid information of the caller who left the voicemail or just be a static value specified in voicemail.conf in the event that the callerid information is unavailable.  Initially, just being able to specify a static value in voicemail.conf, as is currently done with regular e-mail notification, would be fine.

well i fixed it i believe i addded a pagerfromstring to the file. and to the config file.  It acts identical to the current fromstring. I don't have anyway currently to check to see if it works, but it should work, just add pagerfromstring to your voicemail.config file.
