[asterisk-users] Automating blacklists

[Brian Hutchinson]

Is there a function to write the timestamp of the first call?  I started
thinking about AGI and PHP/MySQL since that is what I'm familiar with.  I
couldn't find methods to write timestamp info to AstDB or if I could ... how
to read it back and compare it to "time now" to decide to increment my
counter and have the dial plan decide to allow the call or not.
