asterisk users - May 2010 - Pattern matching - how to ignore numbers after 10 digits

All:

Yesterday I discovered something interesting.  I dialed 1800ANCESTRY 
from the asterisk system I am testing and got the number doesn't exist 
message.  I then dialed the same number from our old system and it went 
through.

I realized that the "Y" in ancestry made the number too long, and went
back to my dialplan.

How do I ignore numbers that are too long?  Obviously, I've done 
something wrong in my pattern matching.

outgoing part of extensions.conf

exten => _91XXXXXXXXXX!,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net) ; long distance
exten => _9765XXXXXXX,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net) ; local
exten => _9XXXXXXX,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net) ; local
exten => _9011XXXXXXX!,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net) ; international
exten => _911,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN}@ia.ntelos.net) ; emergency

Thanks!

I guess it's the "!", sometimes it has a funny behaviour.

try changing ("." instead of "!" and an "X" less)
exten => _91XXXXXXXXXX!,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net<EXTEN%3A1%7D
at ia.ntelos.net>)
; long distance
to
exten => _91XXXXXXXXX.,1,DIAL(SIP/${EXTEN:1}@ia.ntelos.net<EXTEN%3A1%7D at
ia.ntelos.net>)
; long distance


I always use "." and never had a problem.

Unrelated to your question, but "911" doesn't need an underscore.
