Unless you have a dedicated sendmail smart relay, it's hard to properly configure sendmail. ISP provide a number of security and spam measures that can block email.

I also have the ability for my users that have an iax account with an assigned extension. If I make an autopatch to that extension and their zoiper client isn't on I can leave a voice mail that the node will emailes to them. </p>
