I'm concerned about people dialing out of our asterisk server to numbers they shouldn't be dialing.

Is there a concrete algorithm for determining whether a phone number is "normal". i.e. calling this phone number would result in a normal long distance rate.

It seems like the pattern 1NXXNXXXXXX for the U.S. is fairly commonly used, but it wouldn't catch erroneous phone numbers such as "1411XXXXXXX" (and the other X11 numbers)

Is it just a matter of checking for these invalid area codes? If so, is there a list anywhere that I could check against?

I tried googling this topic, but it's hard to find anything with such common keywords. If anyone can direct me to a good resource, I'd appreciate it as well.

On athe same topic, I'm worried about area codes like 809. Are there any other such area codes that should be avoided?

Thanks,
Peter Hsu
