Voicemail Alert Email

hrudy · 10-02-2007, 11:26 PM

Hi,

1. Is it possible so that when I received an email from Voxalot indicating that I have a Voicemail, I don't want the .WAV attachment.

2. Also, can I configure the email address for the Voicemail Alert Email ?

1) Not at this time

2) Voxalot allows one email address for all services associated with your Account at this time.

I would like to see the possiblity of a different email for voicemails too. For instance, if I could send to a special address that sends me an SMS, then I can get notification to my phone for the cost of the SMS to me. I wouldn't want this for every email, just ones that are voicemail related -- I may fix this at my end with email filters though.

Edit: just set up a filter, now awaiting a voicemail message to arrive.....

That's an interesting idea.

Okay, just got through a VM from my production account from 12:30pm delivered at 12:52pm -- the SMS worked on that one.

Although it could be better if the most significant information is restricted to the SMS limit of 160 characters.

I got the following:

Subject [Voicemail]: 614nnnnnnnn <+614nnnnnnnn> Left new message 2 in mailbox 85nnn Message: Hello:

It might be better with the subject line as:
Subject [VM]:2:85nnnn:614nnnnnnnn:23:200710031230.32

- that makes it short and sweet and to the point.
- it immediately tells me that I have just received a second voicemail message in my 85nnnn account from caller 614nnnnnnnn of 23 seconds length and the actual time of the call.

The body of the email can be more verbose if necessary; with my setup it will just get truncated at the 160 character point.
