I am configuring call forwarding in our * setup, but I am having trouble triggering the correct voicemail call.

When I have an extension, e.g. 201, forwarded to another, e.g. 202, my macro will call:
Dial(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n,30)


and once into the internal context, the macro is called again but with MACRO_EXTEN set to 202 rather than 201. So the context flow of control will "do it's thing" against 202. What I want, though, is to return from that macro differently when the Dial() was called against Local rather than my internal extensions. Then, have that Dial(Local/...) return with the priority set to either n+1 or n+101 so that I can handle the flow into VM based on that original extension.

I'm thinking that CHANNEL, MACRO-PRIORITY, and MACRO_OFFSET might be helpful for a return from the subsequent call to the macro, but I need to get information passed back through the Dial(Local/...) call so that I can know what happened with the dial to the forward target.

I would be satisfied if I can get the return from Dial(Local/...) even if I cannot differentiate a busy vs. timeout condition.

Most of the forwarding examples I've found are missing parts of the config file and/or do not seem to work quite right.

Thank you!
