SYNOPSIS

10       vboxmail messagename callername callerid mail-to-address

DESCRIPTION

14       vboxmail  is used by vboxgetty to send notification of a new voice mes‐
15       sage via email. It is not meant to be called directly by any user.
16
17       You can make local modifications to this  script  by  copying  it  from
18       /usr/sbin/vboxmail to /etc/isdn/vboxmail, and editing the copy there.
19
20       Note  that  there  is  an  enhanced version of this script available as
21       /usr/share/doc/isdnvboxserver/vboxmail.enhanced . To use it, copy it to
22       /etc/isdn/vboxmail .  This enhanced version will send the recorded mes‐
23       sage as a MIME attachment  in  the  email  notification.   If  lame  or
24       xingmp3enc  are  installed  in /usr/local/bin, then the message will be
25       converted to MP3 format; otherwise, it will be sent as a WAV file.  For
26       this to work, you also need the following packages installed:
27       mime-construct sox
28       and  of course an MP3 encoder if you want MP3 format. Note that the MP3
29       format will only be 50% smaller (instead of the 90% you might otherwise
30       expect),  because  of  the  relatively  bad sound quality to begin with
31       (8kHz sampling, mono).  If you want to use  another  MP3  encoder  than
32       lame  or xingmp3enc, you'll have to make patches to the script. I'll be
33       happy to implement your changes. Send them as a wishlist bug report  on
34       isdnvboxserver.
