Hi all,
I made a small patch to the app_voicemail.c so it will be able to turn call
notification on or off. The destination that has to be notified can be set.
In the voicemail.conf there is a little addition in the user box
This will call sip extension 1234 via a outgoing dial command. When
connected the extension will be directed to a section in extension.conf the
app_voicemail will pass a parameter called 'vmbox' witch contains the
voicemail box number who is notifying.

I was just looking into something like this, it would be nice if there
were a few more options....
My existing old VM system (nitsuko) will call out to any number (like a
cell phone) and let me know about (and play) new messages. There are options
for time/day and different call numbers, retries, delay between retries, etc.
This avoids having to call into a system and login to the voice mail.
Options could be added to the extensions to improve it. On a callout it
should say there is a voice mail for "your-name" and ask you to press 1
to continue (then optionaly enter PIN)....
Also should the file name be something different each time? If "call"
already exists then it will be removed....it could happen if there
is more than one voicemail and the call is retrying. It might be nice
to name it the same as the mailbox, that way if there is a pending retry
it would only make one call for the same mailbox.
I think it's a simple patch that has value and should be developed more...

In response to a bounty, I developed a patch that does pretty much
everything that you would like it to:
