Add voicemail, external to asterisk

I’m working on a solution where I have a script that puts voicemail in place behind asterisk’s back, so to speak. Is there a way, once the files are in place, to alert the asterisk process to the presence of these new files and alert the extensions appropriately?

I’ve been searching, but I obviously don’t have the right terms. I can’t find anything relevant.

dialplan reload
module reload xxxxx

etc.

Tried, doesn’t work unfortunately.

Are you saying you are creating the msgXXXX.txt and msgXXXX.wav files independently of the voicemail application?

Have you tried setting pollmailboxes = yes in voicemail.conf?

THERE IT IS! Dang, I knew I had seen this somewhere before, but I couldn’t remember the name of the options.

Mas bueno, gracias.
