[asterisk-users] Follow Me problems

[David M. Zendzian]

I asked on freenode #asterisk a while ago about the followme and someone 
was nice enough to share a macro with me that I'm using (although I use 
voip outbound instead of zap, but it may be worth trying):

MYPHONE=IAX2/666
MYOUT=SIP/8885551212 at myoutbound
MYEXT=666

exten => 9,1,Macro(voicemail,${MYPHONE},${MYOUT},${MYEXT})

[macro-voicemail]
exten => s,1,Dial(${ARG1},25,r)
exten => s,2,Goto(s-${DIALSTATUS},1)
exten => s-NOANSWER,1,Setvar(NewCaller=${CALLERIDNUM})
exten => s-NOANSWER,2,Set(CALLERID(number)=${CALLERIDNUM})
exten => s-NOANSWER,3,Dial(${ARG2},15,r)
exten => s-NOANSWER,4,Set(CALLERID(number)=${NewCaller})
exten => s-NOANSWER,5,Voicemail(u${ARG3})
exten => s-NOANSWER,6,Hangup
exten => s-BUSY,1,Voicemail(b${ARG3})
exten => s-BUSY,2,Hangup
exten => _s-.,1,Goto(s-NOANSWER,1)
