If You don't see anything on the command line of *, there might be an
issue with Your phone settings. I don't know anything about the nokias,
but I *think* it might be possible, that the phone connects to anything
other than Your * box in case of the outbond number. AFAIK the * sends a
404-Error back on an non existing extension. In this case the phone
would not show up a "connection time-out". So I would check the settings
on the phone. Or maybe You could do a network trace with tcpdump or
ngrep to double check, that the phone really tries to connect to *.

HTH,
