freePBX Voicemail

Just some thoughts about redoing voicemail..

Probably as an AGI script (see PhpVoicemail), or maybe in dialplan..

Should support

record/re-record messages (incoming/outgoing) WITHOUT overwriting the existing recording until done
email attachments, pager notification
simple folders (we don't need 9 email folders IMHO)
simple greeting system - unavailable, busy (defaults to unavailable if not recorded), temporary (overrides both if recorded)
wizard-style walkthrough the first time - helps you set password, record name, and optionally record greeting
multiple different menu layouts/templates - should be possible to emulate other voicemail systems
backend support: files, imap, db, ....?
better integration with other freepbx features (eg stuff in UserPortal)? Voicemail can be like the voice-based primary interface to change other settings, like CF
