[Asterisk-Users] Announcement to caller when called party haspicked up - without initial Answer()?

[interna]

Stefan if I understood what you need, maybe this works...

MSG_FILE=/var/spool/asterisk/....

exten => s,1,Dial(SIP/MyPhone|60|M(playmessage^${MSG_FILE}))

[macro-playmessage]
exten => s,1,Wait(0.5)
exten => s,2,Playback(${ARG1})
exten => s,3,SetVar(MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE)

I didn´t try it but I think this should work...

pls let me know if it did in fact work... (if u want u can do it off list)

bye,
M.
