Hi,

That's not a phone. That is another Asterisk server, configured with an
IAX2 - IAX2 connection between our two offices. His real "extension" is
a Twinkle Softphone.

This is what I was questioning initially. It appears as though asterisk 
is "answering" the incoming IAX2 connection call *before* actually 
checking if the true destination is actually available or not.

Thanks for the input - I probably didn't explain myself clearly enough.

Alan
