Thanks again.  I'll be sure to try this out.

Yes, I'd be interested in looking through these issues too.  I'm going to
implement the idea you gave and see what comes up.

Yes, its pretty basic, it just reads rates from a config file and bases on
these to calculate the timeouts etc... Find my code here:

Lemme know if you have any questions.  Its still an old version with the
"setwhentohangup" stuff.


Cheers!
