I recall seeing it there once, but I'm reaching into the dusty recesses 
of my memory right now.

I noticed that all the replies to the OP assumed a SIP handset. The 
howler only applies to analog sets.

I've made the same observation -- Asterisk is supposed to send a howler, 
but my phones just a get a wimpy fast busy when left off hook. Once one 
of our analog sets was left off hook for nearly a day before anybody 
noticed ("How come we're not getting any calls?")

How do I make this work the way it's supposed to?
