[asterisk-users] Caller ID has extra digits to strip

[Bart Fisher]

I was hoping someone might have the answer to this:

As an update:  even though you can modify the Caller ID in 
extensions.conf for call handling and use CallerID(number) in you 
script, asterisk does not honor the modified number in CDR and 
VoiceMail.- I need to fix the number at answer.
