That might be worth a posting to usenet:uk.telecom ... I've a funny feeling this is exchange dependant and it's not the same action for all exchanges. I can call my home BT line, answer it, then hangup and the call is cleared inside 10 minutes (usually 2-3) then I can make an outgoing call. I'm told that you need to tell BT that you have a PBX on the end of the line, but I've never done that for any analogue installation I've done.
