a call that has not been answered?

I have a home user for asterisk that is not ready to let asterisk manage the
entire dialplan ... he's still got an answering machine on the outside line
and has this in the [incoming] context for that line:
exten => s,1,Wait(300)
exten => s,2,Answer
exten => s,3,DigitTimeout,5
exten => s,4,ResponseTimeout,10
He does this so the answering machine can answer the phone when he's busy or
not available, but can still dial out on asterisk. The Wait(300) prevents
asterisk from answering before the answering machine does.
Crazy, huh?
Anyway ... he wants to be able to pickup an incoming call during the
Wait(300).
Can this be done?
Thanks,
lane
