obviously in a macro but that's the idea... I was originally farting around with quiet meetme conferences but that wasn't quite right. Am I on the right track here? Hopefully I can take res_parking and create a park() that can incorporate a parkandannounce so that you can select whether you want it audible or in a script (for putting the parking # on a sip phone or something). What do you think? -A. exten 1, --------------------- I think that is a great idea. Rather than the phrase you used above, something along the lines of "<recorded name> is unavailable. To be transferred to voice mail, press 1. To return to the previous person you spoke with, press 2." There has to be a more elegant way to say it, but you get the idea. You could take it to the next step and have a single operator queue, and have another option of "To be placed on hold and wait for the person to become available, press 3." Then if they choose that option, "You will be connected as soon as the person is available. Maximum wait time is 3 minutes, at which time you will be transferred to voice mail. You may press the * key at any time to be immediately transferred to voicemail." The options you are opening up with your idea are tremendous, and will help asterisk fit in with and replace some other existing PBX solutions.
