[asterisk-users] Send 503 or 603 error after answer()

[jonas kellens]

Hello list.

Is it possible in the Asterisk dialplan to send a 503 Service
Unavailable of 603 Decline after having answered the call with Answer()
in the dialplan ??

Suppose that I first want to check the call in a MySQL-database, while I
put some MoH, and then let the call go through or "send" some error to
my ITSP where the call comes from.
I know there is something like 'early media', but isn't it good practise
to always have Answer() in the dialplan ?

Another thing why I want to have this 503 or 603 after having Answered
the call :
my ITSP offers the ability to have a backup number for the call if it
can't get through. If I send the call to a queue and there is nobody in
the queue at that moment, I want to send a sort of error so my ITSP will
send the call to a backup number, like my cellphone.
If I send the call myself to my cellphone, I will have to pay big time
and it's a waist of bandwidth...

Kind regards,

Jonas.
