How about this? exten => 1234567890,1,Dial(Zap/g1/yourcodehere${EXTEN}) -or- exten => 1234567890,1,Dial(Zap/g1/yourcodeherewwww${EXTEN})
I have not seen restrictions set before dialing since local numbers would not fall under the restriction but that is what you said. Usually you dial the number first and if it is a long distance call, they prompt for a code with a tone or something. The second example shoud give you a two second pause before dialing the rest of the number (wwww).
