Because BYEXTENSION is basically a Dial only feature.    Use ${EXTEN}



Jeremy McNamara

Don't use BYEXTENSION use ${EXTEN}

Hey I need another pair of eyes on this!

I would like to add phones numbers to the blacklist from any handset so I
did this:

     exten => _*66XXXXXXXXXX,1,StripMSD,3
     exten => _XXXXXXXXXX,2,DBPut,blacklist/BYEXTENSION/1
     exten => _XXXXXXXXXX,3,Hangup

However what I get in the database is:

     /blacklist/BYEXTENSION : 1

And BYEXTENSION is not replaced with the actual number dialed.

Am I trying to do something that can not be done or am I just not doing it
correctly?
