[asterisk-users] Configuring asterisk to revert call back to forwarder if exten is busy

Can I assume that you want this only for blind transfers?

I have done this previously, but I lost my copy of the work (and it was
a proof of concept only)

It involved the ${BLINDTRANSFER} variable, which catches the number that
made the blind transfer and making macro-stdexten (or your equivalent)
dial that variable in the case of the dial status being treated as BUSY.

To get a 'busy' will involve single line phones, or disabling call
waiting on the phone receiving the call.

regards,
