I was not clear. EXTENSION processing will stop. Once you've matched an 
extension, and your logic is running through priorities in an extension, you no 
longer have the ability to search for another extension to match against. 
That's what I need to do. Again, when control flows beyond a certain point, ie 
when all calls are now known to be extra-company, we need to set the callerid 
to the external company id... so that later on when we dial, the caller id 
presented to person in the other company is correct.
