Asterisk Voicemail Notify for Support Numbers

I looked for a reference to do this for some time to replace the callout
feature in my old AVT voicemail.

I never found one, so I decided to dig in.

Here is my first run. It is in production, so unless I find a problem,
I am done.

Script set to run every 5 min. via cron.

This sets a lock file to prevent 2 scripts from running.
Check for a VM in our Emergency after hours support mailbox.
If found, it sends a numeric page to our rotating pager.
If no one has listened to the mail in 7 minutes, it calls a cell phone.
On this call, it connects directly to a prompt, then VoicemailMain with
the ext. already included.
If no one has listened to the mail in 7 minutes, it calls a second cell
phone.
On this call, it connects directly to a prompt, then VoicemailMain with
the ext. already included.
If no one has listened to the mail in 7 minutes, it calls the rotating
pager again.
This continues to loop until the VM is listened to.
