[asterisk-users] looking for help / input with Blind transfer from asterisk to zap

[Paul Belanger]

I always seem to figure my issues just after I post to the list.  Had
to add a Wait(.5) after the hookflash.
--
[AA]
exten => s,1,Wait(.5)
exten => s,n,Background(vm-whichbox)
exten => s,n,WaitExten

exten => _5XXX,1,Playback(transfer)
exten => _5XXX,n,Flash()
exten => _5XXX,n,Wait(.5)
exten => _5XXX,n,SendDTMF(${EXTEN})
exten => _5XXX,n,Hangup()

Thanks again,
PB
