I use something like this in extensions.conf for outgoing calls:

exten => 
_9.,1,Set(REC_DIR_OUT=/shares/phone_calls/${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y-%m-%d)}/outgoing)
exten => _9.,n,Set(REC_FILE_OUT=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y-%m-%d %H %M %S)} 
- ${EXTEN:1}.gsm)
exten => _9.,n,System(mkdir -p ${REC_DIR_OUT})
exten => _9.,n,MixMonitor(${REC_DIR_OUT}/${REC_FILE_OUT},b)
exten => _9.,n,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@my_voip_provider)
exten => _9.,n,HangUp()


Sorry for the line breaks. My email client does that. You should keep 
each extension priority on a single line.

This will create one variable for the folder (containing the date today) 
and for the file (containing the time of the call and the number 
dialled) - and then creates the folder and starts MixMonitor with the 
filename as argument. If your setup is larger, you should also add maybe 
the calling extension to the file name - so that you don't have two 
files with the same name - if two extensions try to call the same 
external number at exactly the same time (seems unlikely to me).
