Yes. Vgetty calls the script defined in voice.conf as message_program after
hanging up. The script can now postprocess the message. Converting it,
sending it as metamail, whatever you want. The script is called with the
following arguments:

message_progam.sh <filename of message> <CallerId> <CallName>

See above, the scripts gets the caller id. So you could do something like:

message_program.sh:

 #!/bin/sh
 mv $1 `date +"%d.%m.%Y_%T_"`$2.rmd

It's still black art, your best choice is to have a look at the mvm scripts
from Marc Schaefer. See voice/scripts/voice_mail.sh for infos. I'm in the
process to include the latest mvm version into the main vgetty tree.

Bye,
Marc
