[Asterisk-Users] Callback Application: Suggestions Please.

[Eric "ManxPower" Wieling]

When the customer calls in, have the exten => run an AGI to create a 
.call file (set the creation time of the file a few seconds in the 
future to be sure Asterisk doesn't call immediatly).   See sample.call 
in the Asterisk source and the wiki
