That's exactly what the 't' and 'T' options do, just make sure you are using 
the right one, I find it almost NEVER desireable to have both.  'T' allows 
the calling user to transfer with '#', 't' allows the called user to do so.  
if you're dialing between extensions in an office, you want both, but most 
other times you want one or the other.

If I'm not mistaken only 'pbx' threads can make use of the other features in 
features.conf.  tT is only for features in the [featuremap] section of 
features.conf.  I think.  (blind/attended transfers, call record, disconnect, 
etc.)

I think.  :-)
