[asterisk-users] Another Faxing Question
This probably came up before, but I have a faxing question for everyone. I have a simple extension setup to use rxfax to receive faxes sent to asterisk. It is: exten = s,1,Answer() exten = s,n,AbsoluteTimeout(300) exten = s,n,Set(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk/fax/${ARG1}_${CALLERIDNUM}_${UNIQUEID}.tif) exten = s,n,rxfax(${FAXFILE}) exten = s,n,System(/usr/bin/mailfax ${ARG1} ${FAXFILE} ${ARG2}) exten = s,n,Hangup() exten = T,1,Hangup() I read that you had to put a AbsoluteTimeout in there, or it might not hang up. My questions then are... why wouldn't it hang up without the timeout, and what if the fax really is that large? We sometimes get faxes over 150 pages.

RE: [asterisk-users] Another Faxing Question
In my (limited) experience with rxfax, it has issues with large faxes. I soon gave up on rxfax and switched to hylafax (which works much better). Check the wiki for installation instructions. (And hylafax will correctly hangup when the fax has completed/failed/whatever.)

[asterisk-users] Another (quick) Polycom 501 question
Hi all, That's my last one for a while (I hope). How can I (if at all possible) make the 501 turn on the speaker phone as soon as a digit is dialed (if the handset is not lifted)?Sort of likewhat a normal speakerphone does. The reason I want this is I want the 501 digitmap to be taken into consideration even if the handset isnt lifted and the speakerphone button isn't consciously pressed. For all those users who don't want to press send, but like dialing without lifting the handset (and can't be bothered to press the speakerphone button). Yes I know it's capricious, but we have the users we have... Yes, I have read the admin manual, but couldn't find the info. I am assuming I just don't know what to look for, but that this functionality exists.

Re: [asterisk-users] Another (quick) Polycom 501 question
Hi Mike, As far as I know, you need to at least start the dialing (ie New call, speaker, etc) for the digitmap to even come into play. The only settings that I am aware of that you can try to change are dialplan.impossibleMatch-Handling and dialplan.digitmap from sip.conf.

[Asterisk-Users] another nat question
Any disadvantage to always setting nat=yes for all UAs just in case they end up behind a NAT at some point? Canreinvite=no is always set since a few of our features require it (transfers, etc.) What is the impact of qualify=yes for 250-500 UAs? ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Another problem on queues
Hello all, I have been posting some questions about this problems that I cannot yet solve, but I think I have a better diagostic, so maybe someone can give me a clue why it is happenning. I have Asterisk + AMPconfigured as a PBX with a Customer Center Queue with 4 agents that login/logout dinamically. If there are no agents, queue timesout and gets derived to another queue that somebody answers as last resort or waits there. If there is at least one agent logged in, but it is busy, dialparties.agi detects that that extension has no callwaiting, no callforward, no voicemail, and hangs up the call inmediately with a "nobody is available to take your call right now" message, making the queue useless. My PSTN connection is an AS5300 in SIP, my extensions are analog phones connected to an Audiocodes MP108-FXS with SIP. This is the output from CLI with High Verbosity: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX is the IP of the AS5300, 8521 and 8522 are the only two agents in the queue that have inbound calls in progress when a third call arrives and this happens. 8500 is the queue number -- Executing SetVar("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "FROM_DID=1154538500") in new stack -- Executing Goto("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "ext-did|1154538500|1") in new stack -- Goto (ext-did,1154538500,1) -- Executing Goto("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "ext-queues|8500|1") in new stack -- Goto (ext-queues,8500,1) -- Executing Answer("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "") in new stack -- Executing SetCIDName("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX") in new stack -- Executing SetVar("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "MONITOR_FILENAME=/var/spool/asterisk/monitor/q") in new stack -- Executing Queue("SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110", "8500|t|||300") in new stack -- Started music on hold, class 'operadores', on SIP/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-43921110 -- Executing Macro("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "exten-vm|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|8521") in new stack -- Executing SetVar("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "FROMCONTEXT=exten-vm") in new stack -- Executing Macro("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "record-enable|8521|IN") in new stack -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0 0?2:4") in new stack -- Goto (macro-record-enable,s,4) -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0?5:8") in new stack -- Goto (macro-record-enable,s,8) -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0?9:12") in new stack -- Goto (macro-record-enable,s,12) -- Executing DBget("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "RecEnable=RECORD-IN/8521") in new stack -- DBget: varname=RecEnable, family=RECORD-IN, key=8521 -- DBget: Value not found in database. -- Executing SetVar("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "CALLFILENAME=20050805-43-1123251103.2060") in new stack -- Called Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0?15:99") in new stack -- Goto (macro-record-enable,s,99) -- Executing NoOp("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "NO RECORDING NEEDED") in new stack -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "1?novm|1:4") in new stack -- Goto (macro-exten-vm,novm,1) -- Executing Macro("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "dial|120|tr|8521") in new stack -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0?4:2") in new stack -- Goto (macro-dial,s,2) -- Executing GotoIf("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "0?4:3") in new stack -- Goto (macro-dial,s,3) -- Executing SetCIDName("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX") in new stack -- Executing AGI("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "dialparties.agi") in new stack -- Launched AGI Script /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/dialparties.agi -- dialparties.agi: request = dialparties.agi -- dialparties.agi: priority = 4 -- dialparties.agi: extension = s -- dialparties.agi: language = en -- dialparties.agi: accountcode = -- dialparties.agi: uniqueid = 1123251103.2060 -- dialparties.agi: channel = Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2 -- dialparties.agi: callerid = XXX.XXX.XXX.XX.XXX.XXX.XXX -- dialparties.agi: context = macro-dial -- dialparties.agi: type = Local -- dialparties.agi: rdnis = unknown -- dialparties.agi: enhanced = 0.0 -- dialparties.agi: dnid = unknown dialparties.agi: Caller ID is not set -- dialparties.agi: Added extension 8521 to extension map -- dialparties.agi: Extension 8521 cf is disabled -- dialparties.agi: Extension 8521 do not disturb is disabled == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/manager.conf': Found == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/manager_custom.conf': Found == Manager 'admin' logged on from 127.0.0.1 == Manager 'admin' logged off from 127.0.0.1 dialparties.agi: Extension 8521 has call waiting disabled dialparties.agi: Max calls of 1 exceeded - deleting from dial dialparties.agi: Dial string is empty - nothing to do dialparties.agi: Was direct call, jumping to priority 26 -- AGI Script Executing Application: (NoOp) Options: () -- AGI Script dialparties.agi completed, returning 0 -- Executing Wait("Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2", "1") in new stack -- Executing
Re: [Asterisk-Users] (Another) Queue log analyser
hi is this stuff still available? roy On 14. okt. 2004, at 16.10, Ben Merrills wrote: I've been doing some work on a queue log analyser for a while now, getting the basics in place, an example of which you can find at the URL below. However, just wondering what information people think is most useful in a log analyser? At present it includes the following features: # Time periods - specify a period of days from the log which you want to generate statistics for (e.g. only the last 14 days) # Templating - allows the stats to be inserted into any html/text template using specific tags to insert stats. This means you could create a number of templates and execute the analyser against them to give different information on different pages (quite flexible). # Specify start and end dates - similar to the first feature, except you can specify a tight period from your log, not just the last x number of days # Channels/Agents to names - simple text file allows you to specify a name, agent number and a channel - e.g. Ben, Agent/1, Sip/ben. This is then used in the output # instead of raw data # JPG graphs - includes a custom class to generate line graphs of information (e.g. hourly call volumes etc) What I want to know though is, what output people would like. At the moment there is an overview of all queues, which includes: Total Calls, total connected calls, total abandoned calls, calls abandoned within x seconds, calls exited with key press, Average hold time, max hold time, average talk time Agent overview includes: Calls taken, Average talk time Graph of call volume per hour of the day Graph of call volume per day (over the period specified) Runs under windows (.NET or mono required) or any other OS that support .NET/mono (Linux, Mac, BSD etc) http://muad.xdev.net/Projects/qig/sample.html Not really done anything like this before, so as much input as possible would be appreciated.

[Asterisk-Users] (another try) Dialing phone number and extension together to avoid listening to voice menu (incoming call)
Hello, Sorry for reposting the message, but I'm not sure the first post went through. I'm trying to figure out how to get Asterisk to dial an extension when a call comes from the outside and contains the extension already. (Somebody wants to call a user of Asterisk with extension 111 from the outside) For example: I've hooked Asterisk to sipgate.de and received a landline phone number (say 0781205237). Now if you dial 0781205237 and and an extension altogether (0781205237111) I would like Asterisk to redirect the call to the extension 111, without having to listen to the greetings message and then typing the extension on the keypad. Please help me to figure it out. Any suggestions and code excerpts would be highly appreciated. Also, I was trying to use a voice menu setup for that, so that when the user dials 0781205237, he/she would listen to the greeting and then can enter the extension on the phone. However, I couldn't get this to work either. Here is the excerpt of my extensions.conf: *** ; defining the voice menu for incoming calls: [fhostaffmenu] exten = s,1,Ringing; Make them comfortable with some seconds of ringback exten = s,2,Answer ; Answer the line exten = s,3,DigitTimeout(1); Set Digit Timeout to 5 seconds exten = s,4,ResponseTimeout(3) ; Set Response Timeout to 10 seconds exten = s,5,Read(mynumber,beep,3) ; Read DTMF input and save it into mynumber variable exten = s,6,Macro(fhostaff,${mynumber},SIP/${mynumber}) ; dial the extension that is saved in mynumber *** When I execute this, it says that User entered ''. Why wouldn't it read the numbers punched on the phone? The Voicemail works very well. I use dtmfmode = rfc2833 and iLBC codec. Also, please check if the comments I made to the code below are correct.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] (another try) Dialing phone number and extension together to avoid listening to voice menu (incoming call)
*** ; defining the voice menu for incoming calls: [fhostaffmenu] exten = s,1,Ringing ; Make them comfortable with some seconds of ringback exten = s,2,Answer ; Answer the line You haven't actually given them any ringing, you need to add this: exten = s,3,wait(2) ; Give them 2 seconds of ringing exten = s,4,DigitTimeout(1) ; Set Digit Timeout to 5 seconds exten = s,5,ResponseTimeout(3) ; Set Response Timeout to 10 seconds Rather than doing the below, if you simply stop all processing at this point, and don't have any more extensions, then asterisk will wait 3 seconds for the user to press a number, then 1 second for each extra number. When they don't press a number for more than the 1 second, or asterisk matches an extension, then it will try to dial the entered number. exten = s,5,Read(mynumber,beep,3) ; Read DTMF input and save it into mynumber variable exten = s,6,Macro(fhostaff,${mynumber},SIP/${mynumber}) ; dial the extension that is saved in mynumber *** OK, hard to get asterisk to do this, but something like: exten = _XXX.,Macro(fhostaff,${mynumber},SIP/${mynumber}) So, the user can dial 3 or more digits, and then it will go to your macro. You can also add: exten = i,1,playback(some_file_to_say_you_entered_an_invalid_extension_try_again) exten = i,2,Goto(s,4) and also: exten = t,1,playback(some_file_to_say_you_did_not_enter_an_extension_try_again) exten = t,2,Goto(s,4) I hope that helps you...

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Another Asterisk Certification
The place it has for me is that my work is hesitant to pay for additional training if there's nothing to show for it, like a certification. They can't tell if I go to a $2000 training course and just goof off, there's no tangible goods that they can see. If I got them to shell out $3000 for my training, and I get the certification, then the powers that be will feel better about themselves and justified in spending the money. As far as I'm concerned, if it convinces them to pay to make me a better/smarter person, then I'm all for it. However, if I had to pay for it myself, I'd only consider it if it was truly worth it. I don't want to waste hours on how to setup and install linux and how to create user accounts in sip.conf and iax.conf and how to make an extension call a phone, I can do that in my sleep, I want to learn about the most advanced features in Asterisk, some of those little commands that people tend to forget about in the day to day configuration. And I would want to learn some very neat tips and tricks and such. If it offered that, then I'd scrounge up the $3000. Especially if it lands me a $50,000/yr+ Job. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of James Taylor Sent: Sunday, August 22, 2004 10:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Another Asterisk Certification Alternate Certification For those of you who can't (or won't) shell-out the $3000+ for the 5 day certification class, here's a quicker way AND IT'S HALF THE MONEY! www.metrotel.net/asterisk.htm Asterisk is a good product.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Another Asterisk Certification
What started out as a good thing for the community has veared it ugly head and will come back to bite us in the ass. I give my respect to the two companies that decided to put themselves 'out there' and attempted to bring 'real world' certifications of knowledge in an area that is unregulated, open, and currently has no measurement of how much one person has over another. What makes me different than the person next door selling the same solution. We both have access to the hardware, software and newsgroups. What is there to tell the customer that _I_ am better suited to solve the customers' problem or implement a solution that will work?? Nothing! We are faced with a growing install base and many who put together systems are doing it for the first time. Sure any customers will get fed up with Asterisk and vie never to use it again. Others, like many customers' that I have found like it but need a someone with expertise to help them through the tough configs. Will Asterisk certification help me, depends. My strength not only lie in the configuration and modification of Asterisk but in the whole telecom and networking expeiriance that I have. This is new stuff, you must know about MTU, E1, T1, PRI, FXO, FXS, TCP, UDP, Linux, Iptables, http, Nat, etc. Tell me why you can still talk to someone clearly, but are not able to use a modem past 2400 baud at a hotel, and you'll understand codecs and how they interoperate.

[Asterisk-Users] Another Asterisk Certification? -- This time we might just Unionize
I, being one of the original Microsoft Certified guys, back then you sent them $150 and you got the certificate and some logos (think 1980's certification.) In 1996 I was told by the company I was working for the certification was needed if I was to keep my current salary. What I saw was morons who had time to study for the tests, because they could not code anyway, pass the test and get certified and allowed to keep their pay grade. I took two tests, got my pin and left for a better job with more money. Certification works to show that the person can pass a test, not that they can do anything in the real world. Corporate America likes certifications as it provides them with a comfort level and a box that can be checked off. I have never hired a person based on being certified, I can tell if they can do the job or not by interviewing them. Real programmers just get things done anyway. Would you really want to work at a place that required any kind of certification? I agree that Digium class for $3000 are a good thing, they help people come up to speed and help stop the confusion in the beginning. If customer are asking for it then they should be allowed to buy it. Certification stinks in the real world. In the world of corporations it is necessary evil and part of the game when you sell to the corporations. Lets unionize all the programmers in the world so we can set rates and standards and get the respect we deserve. Oh yeah, I forgot, Unionizing programmers won't work for the same reason women make only 70% of the wages men do. A woman will always undercut another woman to get the job instead teaming together and holding out for better wages. As the subcontinent programmers under cut the US programmers, but in the end you get what you pay for in America.

I have faith in Mark and what he can do when he gets back from France. When I taught Sun and SCO classes (flame throwers down, please) it was SCO corporate that provided the Certification, albeit outsourced but it was from the same people that put out the OS. In order to be an instructor you needed to have taken the course or have 'tested out' and had to have a score above 90 on your exam. (70 was passing). This allows the certification program to grow as your instructors know the course material and will be able to teach students with real world situations.

[Asterisk-Users] (Another) Queue log analyser
I've been doing some work on a queue log analyser for a while now, getting the basics in place, an example of which you can find at the URL below. However, just wondering what information people think is most useful in a log analyser? At present it includes the following features: # Time periods - specify a period of days from the log which you want to generate statistics for (e.g. only the last 14 days) # Templating - allows the stats to be inserted into any html/text template using specific tags to insert stats. This means you could create a number of templates and execute the analyser against them to give different information on different pages (quite flexible). # Specify start and end dates - similar to the first feature, except you can specify a tight period from your log, not just the last x number of days # Channels/Agents to names - simple text file allows you to specify a name, agent number and a channel - e.g. Ben, Agent/1, Sip/ben. This is then used in the output # instead of raw data # JPG graphs - includes a custom class to generate line graphs of information (e.g. hourly call volumes etc) What I want to know though is, what output people would like.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] (Another) Queue log analyser
Very nice work Ben, thanks. Here are some additional thoughts - One segmentation that might be useful would be to add outbound calling activities as a either a separate column or even view. On agent stats, it would be useful to see login/logout stamps, login time, ready/not ready time (if this can be tracked, not sure). If you would like, I can send you some example reports that are used in a typical call center, contact me directly if you would find that helpful.

AJ I don't know if your situation is the same as mine but I have been burned in the past by assuming that cvs update will provide all the lastest files. It only updates files that have previously been downloaded, soo, if you do not have a file that is now part of zaptel for instance, you will still not have that file. Do a fresh checkout to make sure you have all of the needed files. By the way, zapata is no longer needed. It has been incorporated into one of the others. Perhaps you mean subdirectories? True, 'cvs update' will not typically create new subdirectories, so you can do a 'cvs update -d' to have the update create new subdirectories, as 'cvs checkout' does, but 'cvs update' should create new files (in existing directories) just fine. -Tilghman ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

AJ I don't know if your situation is the same as mine but I have been burned in the past by assuming that cvs update will provide all the lastest files. It only updates files that have previously been downloaded, soo, if you do not have a file that is now part of zaptel for instance, you will still not have that file. Do a fresh checkout to make sure you have all of the needed files. By the way, zapata is no longer needed. It has been incorporated into one of the others. Perhaps you mean subdirectories? True, 'cvs update' will not typically create new subdirectories, so you can do a 'cvs update -d' to have the update create new subdirectories, as 'cvs checkout' does, but 'cvs update' should create new files (in existing directories) just fine. -Tilghman ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users -- Brancaleoni Matteo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Espia - Emmegi Srl ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] another newbie question: forwarding delay?
Hi, Most embarrased newbie evere here again. Possibly another daft question. I have the digium starter kit lite, so I've got the single FXO and FXS lines All is working well with local sip phones able to dial other phones, conferencing, MOH (Thanks Asterisrk-users list!) along with the one analogue handset etc etc. The one niggleing problem I have now is this: My Dialplan is set to ring the Analogue handset when there is an incoming PSTN call. Fine. This works well BUT there is an annoying delay: I've left a normal analogue handset on the PSTN line, so we have the asterisk internal analogue and the external analogue next to each other. Ehen there is an incoming PSTN call, the external analogue phone starts ringing about 3 seconds before the internal one. If I answer the call on the external handset (ie not via *), the internal phone keeps ringing for another three seconds or so. I'm pretty sure that I've not got an intentional delay anywhere. Does anyone recognize this problem? Perhaps it's just related to fiddling (answering!) the esxternal line before it hits *? I won't fill up the list with my silly dialplan, but its here if anyone cares to check if I've stuffed it up! https://www.turbotas.co.uk/wiki/index.php?page=TurboTasExtensionsConf Thanks in advance!

I would have to disagree. The only reason I hadn't answered this message before is Chip wanted to know about setups with a receptionist. Our office has been using asterisk as our pbx for over a year now. Granted we are a small office of only 5 people, but it hasn't failed us yet. And it doesn't have to because they can work together.

When you remove the need for a receptionist and if your IVR is setup up well enough that a caller doesn't need to be transfered usually after connected to a user, then all those features on a fancier phone aren't used. I consider the company we had split from to me fairly average, and all the extra buttons on their Intertel system only makes it more likely to drop a call. I think if you consider the average company and down to home use, then add in those companies that are willing to simplify the phone system, you will see a large amount of people ready for a asterisk system. You point out how asterisk can make headway into the those systems that need more. -- Steven Critchfield [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Another PRI based question
Your Verion Rep is way out in left filed. DID is about the only way to go on PRI's. And doing it is about 3 lines in the CO switch. DMS 500 Table DN Route: Numbers to OFRT 223 table OFRT 223 Trunk Group Name table trkgrp Trunk Definition. That is all there is to it. Routing a single number to a PRI channel on the other hand is a nightmare. We sell DID's in upstate NY for about $20 a hundred. Some one else said it. Get a new Verizon Rep. I have about 6 PRI's going to * boxes in my CO right next to a DMS-500, so I know for a fact this works quite well. As a note, while ISDN Q.931 does call for a 10 Digit Called Party Number (PRI DID) it is entirely possible to send 3,4,5 etc digits as the Called Party Number. Stick with the 10 digits. More typing, but well worth it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Another PRI based question
You hit the nail on the head in saying the tariffs in this area are whacked. A block of 20 DID numbers increases the cost of the PRI about $220 a month and that is with the configuration of 12 inbound and 11 outbound. If you want the configuration otherwise or more DID numbers it costs even more. The area I service is Maryland and Delaware both the states are crazy when it comes to telco issues. In Maryland the install costs are more, monthly charges being less and just the opposite in Delaware. I can be on 2 different job sites less than 5 minutes apart, separated by state lines only and the difference in the PRI monthly cost is $200. If this is not crazy I don't know what is. The rep in this case seems reasonably well informed. With that being the case, he was trying to be mindful in giving us a cheaper option that did relatively the same thing. As a matter of fact, he said he suggests this to most of his customers versus DID numbers. Consider the odds of that, a Verizon rep trying to help or save the customer some money! :) AJ On Sat, 7 Jun 2003, Steven Critchfield wrote: On Sat, 2003-06-07 at 21:04, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well I would have went with DIDs however it really increases the pricing of their plan plus we then have to split the channels up as incoming and outgoing.
