I am participating in a conversion from AUDIX to MM. AUDIX has about 2000 subscribers. Probably about 10 % or so of those mailboxes are no longer used, so we don't want to recreate them in MM. We have already purged all mailboxes for which there is not a corresponding object in the 3 PBXs that AUDIX serves. But the only means to know if any of the remaining mailboxes are unused to 1) evaluate every switch object (station, VDN, hunt group, etc.) for which there is a corresponding mailbox to see if calls to that object ever flow to AUDIX if unanswered (via a vector, coverage path, etc.) or 2) execute the "display activity-log" command in AUDIX (for a wide window of time) for every subscriber. Both of thee approaches are WAY too laborious and time consuming for a system this size.
Years ago I wrote a fairly simple script in ProComm that automated the second approach mentioned above, i.e. it would automatically cycle through every subscriber and execute the "display activity-log" command (for a 2- or 3-month time window) and write the results to a file. It was a thing of beauty. Unfortunately, however, ProComm is a discontinue product. Although my old 3.0 version will open under Windows XP, it will not set up a telnet connection, so I cannot use it for the current project.
With that lengthy introduction (my apologies), can anyone suggest an alternative solution to easily evaluating mailbox usage across such a large number of mailboxes? For example, is there any other communications program that can execute my ProComm script (I'd hate to have to learn another scripting language just for this one project).
Any advice would be much appreciated.
