A call file is a text file that you create. The format is very

How many customers will be receiving these reminders?

In my experience, you can't just dump xxx call files into the outgoing
directory. If you expect more than a dozen or so, you'll have to move them
in blocks as they are processed. Another good reason to use AMI.
You can 'schedule' a call file to be processed in the future by setting
the file's 'mtime.'
* Can you explain for me please?
Create a file named fajr containing:
application: playback
channel: sip/bilal
data: fajr-in-10-minutes
Copy the file to a directory we assume is on the same file system as
/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/:
cp\
fajr\
/var/spool/asterisk/tmp/
Set the file's 'mtime'
touch\
--date='now + 2 minutes'\
--time=mtime\
/var/spool/asterisk/tmp/fajr
Move it to the outgoing directory:
mv\
/var/spool/asterisk/tmp/fajr\
/var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/
Your phone should ring in about 2 minutes.
You may want to look into setting 'auto-answer' or some sort of 'overhead
paging' with a very discreet sound file like a short, single beep.
Please consider AMI if you are looking for a robust service.
