I'm confused now.  Please describe which scenario applies to you:

(1)  Your Asterisk box shares an analogue line with an ordinary telephone.  
You want the person sitting at that telephone to be able to answer it and 
prevent the Asterisk box friom answering it.  This is where you need a Wait() 
in your dialplan.

(2)  Outgoing calls from your Asterisk box are showing up as "answered" even 
whether or not the person at the far end picked up their telephone.
