Thanks, but the problem's with the first extension:

exten => _NXXXXXX,1,NoOp(Number dialed ${EXTEN}) exten =>
_NXXXXXX,n,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN})

The problem is I _do_ get a match as you can see by the CLI output, but it
shouldn't match IMO - 6137451576 shouldn't match _NXXXXXX but that line gets
executed.

There was a cut/paste error with the others BTW.  I thought I'd replaced the
defines with the actual numbers for clarity, but I made a mistake.  They are
actually this way in my plan:

exten => ${LD_PATTERN},1,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN})
exten => ${INT_PATTERN},1,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN})

Thanks,
H
