asterisk users - Nov 2004 - Call pickup and snom phones

First of all, excuse me if this is considered as OT.

I'm trying to use the asterisk call pickup function on the 220 Snom phones,
in other phones works well. But if I dial *8# in the snom phones, the call
is no picked up. In others phones this combo of keys works perfectly.

Someone could give me a clue?
Any info will be appreciated.

You need to have the pickupgroups added in sip.conf
Then - in order to pick up, use *8   ( and not *8# ).

Under each extension ( here in group 1 ) add the following lines
to sip.conf :

callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1
