You check for BUSY. Check for IN_USE instead. That's what I do here (on 1.4,
but I guess that 1.6 behaves similarly).
When an extension is in IN_USE state I have a decision tree after consulting
a database:
- If the user wants waiting call - dial him/her/
- If the user doesn;t want waiting call but wants voicemail answer - send
to voicemail with B prefix.
- If niether is wanted - play busy.
