John,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am planning on moving to version 13 but need to 
find a
solution in the interim. If there are any configuration options that pertain to 
which actions to take with existing calls when new calls come in, I think it is 
likely
that they would be shared between both versions (and I want to make sure I have 
the
correct settings when I switch to version 13 too). Can you advise on any 
tunables
related to handling existing vs new calls?

Thanks,

Andrew
