Does it really work this way for you? I thought asterisk cannot bridge together
2 channels if originating party hangs up. I mean if I press flash button to put
one party on hold, then dial another extension and then hang up the two other
extensions do not get connected but both calls get dropped. Only "blind transfer"
with # key works for me.
If it really works for you, would you mind to show your configuration?
Thanks.
