We have a similar environment. I ring 3 phones, but I use a different
ring so the employees know it's an outside call and can answer it
accordingly. From my extensions.conf:
exten => 0,2,Dial(${USER1}r2&${USER2}r2&${USER3}r2,20,Tt)
In addition, if nobody answers the call, it goes to a separate
"global" voicemail box that is set to email a notification to a
supervisor.
