Summary:                    Application Pickup() "PICKUPMARK" string is not
working!
Description: 
I have several trunks, each one directed to a context in my PBX.

When I execute Pickup(${EXTEN:2}@CONTEXT-XXX) to te right context ( in
which the call has been received ), the Pickup() works.

When I execute the Pickup(${EXTEN:2}) without any context or
Pickup(${EXTEN:2}@PICKUPMARK), I get the error message:

[Aug 31 18:52:56] NOTICE[6694]: app_directed_pickup.c:159 pickup_exec: No
target channel found for 2102.

I think that PICKUPMARK should scan the channels for one or the first
context in which this extension is active and Pickup this extension on the
matched context.

The same flaw has been reproduced on Asterisk 1.4.10.1

Okay, it's fairly obvious that you don't understand how PICKUPMARK works. 
Each channel that you want to be able to pickup, you must
Set(PICKUPMARK=1234) on and then you can Pickup(1234 at PICKUPMARK) from
another channel.  If you want that behavior, that's what you have to do,
but this is not a bug, just because it doesn't work the way you want.  It
DOES work the way it's documented.
