Description:When per-mailbox 'emailbody' value is found and used, the substitute_escapes() function is not applied, contrary to what happens when 'emailbody' is taken from the [general] section of the configuration file.

The subsequent notification e-mail sent to the user will contain litteral \n, \r and \t characters.

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

In app_voicemail.c, when the [general] 'emailbody' variable is used (11291-11292):

if ((val = ast_variable_retrieve(cfg, "general", "emailbody"))) {
   emailbody = ast_strdup(substitute_escapes(val));
}

When the 'emailbody' variable is taken from the per-mailbox settings (line 1206-1207):

} else if (!strcasecmp(var->name, "emailbody")) {
   retval->emailbody = ast_strdup(var->value);

It works like a charm as far as 'emailbody' is concerned. I'm not sure that substituting text formatting (\n, \r, \t, etc.) escaped characters from 'emailsubject' is relevant, though.

Thanks!

Any way to get this into the latest 1.6.2 branch?

This is very similar to ASTERISK-16795, which is currently being worked.  

As an aside, this will get added to the 1.8, 10, and trunk branches.
