Environment:Asterisk installed from source. Debian 7, 64bit.Attachments:
Description:Setting some options (in voicemail.conf) can be set under [general], like:
serveremail
fromstring
emailsubject
emailbody

The following list can also be set per mailbox:
servermail
emailsubject
emailbody

It would be nice if also "fromstring" could also be set on a per mailbox base.

Well, without a patch this is more of a documentation issue and likely not a bug.

From a documentation perspective - voicemail.conf says
{noformat}
; NOTE: All options can be expressed globally in the general section, and
; overridden in the per-mailbox settings, unless listed otherwise.
{noformat}

The documentation for {{fromstring}} says

{noformat}
; Change the From: string
;fromstring=The Asterisk PBX
{noformat}

So, if this is determined to not be a bug we should at least fix the documentation to say that this option cannot be used per-mailbox.
