Hrm. Yes, that is what I got from it. But in my case the hardware is an internal, PCI (Zap) Wildcard. I am pressuming that since I can use functions like Wait(), then Answer() in dialplan to actually delay answering (for the Wait() time) that Asterisk actually acknowledges the call. You would essentially need to put the delay before the call ever reaches asterisk. So this problem isn't asterisk related... if I've understood your question and the answer I found correctly. Hrm. Yeah. Perhaps. I guess perhaps Asterisk isn't currently able to handle deciding if the call has been hung up before it even picks it up (i.e. no more rings). Maybe a peek at the source to Asterisk and the zaptel drivers might tell me more. I just find it strange that I am the first person to want this feature. Indeed tomshardware.com has an article describing how to make an answering machine out of Asterisk by doing exactly what I tried. In my experiments though, it just don't work the way they describe it. Thanx, b. -- My other computer is your Microsoft Windows server. Brian J.

I think you need to use dial instead of answer. You can put a timeout in dial and if the call is hung up dial will exit. If it exited due to hangup the call will not be answered and the voicemail call will be ignores. How you set up something to dial to that can't answer is beyond me, but if you can figure it out, that should work.

Assume this: while Dial() is working (and waiting for the timeout) somebody has picked up a phone that shares the POTS line with Asterisk. Will that second pick up of the POTS line look like a hangup on the POTS line to Asterisk while it is Dial()ing? b. -- My other computer is your Microsoft Windows server. Brian J.

I have a 4 line analog phone sharing the phones with * and if I grab it before a * goes to voicemail it never goes to voicemail. Both my analog and SIP phones are ringing at the same time.

The hardware is a wildcard though. How does that answer apply? Isn't it asterisk itself that is picking that call up? Can't it delay the pick up?
