We won't be originating any calls out (apart from the queued calls).

The scenario is that we have a number of incoming calls, and some of those
are selected to then queue, to be dealt with by people at a remote location.
The number of calls queueing is greater than the number of PSTN lines
available at the remote site.

I *think* it'll work as I described, having a "member =>
SIP/12345678 at pstn.gateway.com" entry in queues.conf? When all lines are
busy, the next-in-queue caller will keep retrying and getting a busy result
back? Then once a line becomes available the call will go through?
