Ah, ok, I see what you are getting at.
However, could you not run a macro on connection (to the agents device)
that then pauses the queue member so that no more calls will come
through until they are unpaused ?

That's a good idea, but it does not help when the agent receives a

on our 7940 Ciscos...) the queue will send another incoming call

them from the queue.
Is that not the case? Have I misconfigured something?
The Queue should not be sending a call to an agent that is marked as
"paused", that is what the pause was desigined for. Are you using
more than 1 queue with the same agent ?
When accepting a call from the queue, what mechanism is there to pause
the queue member?
Yes, it's possible to pause the agent when she places an outbound call
or when recieving a direct-dialed or extention-dialed call, but how do
you pause the agent when she accepts a call from the queue?
To the OP:
We too use Cisco 7940s for our office, and what I ended up doing, was
turning off call waiting completely, then using the first line
appearance for the user's actual extension, and the second line
appearance for the call queue. It's just as annoying as call waiting
without getting slammed by queue calls.
