Description:Some people have no sensahuma.

I have a client about to deploy several hundred Asterisk Voicemail systems, but the boss thinks that "Comedian Mail" is unprofessional.

I have made the vm-login and vm-newuser prompts settable in voicemail.conf.

This allowed us to change vm-login to just "Mailbox?" and vm-newuser to "Welcome. First I will guide you..."

Patches supplied.

Looks nice.  Remember there is another history to the comedian mail. If we can get some testers and update the config patch to note the defaults I can commit.

>update the config patch to note the defaults

There seems to be no real consensus on whether what is commented out in a config file should be the default or the changed value.  More commonly it's the changed value, which is why I made it exactly like the four lines already there.

Except I misspelled "is" as "us".  So I'll fix that, and add the name of the default file for all of the customizable sounds, not just the two I added.

Coming soon.  will be voicemail.conf.sample.2.patch

I would find some way to mention the filenames in the config file.  They are in the C file but not all users look there.

The filenames happen to be the same as the variable names, but I've mentioned them just the same and corrected some errors and omissions along the way.

I'd suggest merging the various patches into one.  This make it easy for somebody to test and merge.  Additionally, 'svn diff' is the preferred patch.
