That works - thank you for the pointer. I was not aware of the word "NOW" - I have always used the variable ${EPOCH} when I needed a timestamp. Do you know where this is documented? I would have expected it to be in https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Standard+Channel+Variables for example, which does mention ${EPOCH}, and also shows an example of ${STRFTIME()}, using ${EPOCH} as the timestamp value.
