Yes, I did look at that.  The issue is that the above has a hardcoded
extension-to-emailaddr relation (251->emailaddr). I don't see how I can
use the h extension when the email-address will depend on the callers
extension.  Well, I guess I could handle it in the script, but I'd
rather keep that information out of it.
