[Asterisk-Users] Dialing part of the extension

[Michael Collins]

FYI,
If you want to learn more about why ${EXTEN:1} works, check out the
Asterisk TFOT book, chapters 4 and 5.  Page 95 of chapter 5 deals
specifically with the ${EXTEN} variable and the syntax of adding ":1"
(or ":2", ":3", etc.) - good stuff to know.
