[Asterisk-Users] Directed pickup syntax?

[Joshua Colp - Asterlink]

You have to tell it the extension you want to pick up, it's not psychic.
Doing what you're doing now would give the application no extension.

Exten => _*99.,1,Pickup(${EXTEN:3}) should work, with usage being
*99<extension to pickup>
