asterisk users - Oct 2006 - Multiple 'routes' to extension in different contextes. How to influence search oder?

Hi all

I share my Asterisk Server with a few friends. It is connected to PSTN, and 
various SIP Providers.

I offer Free Calls to my friends, but myself I would like to be able to make 
calls to non free destinations via my PSTN Line.

Now I do this in my dialplan:

-----------------------
[myself]
; National Destinations
exten => _0z.,1,Dial(SIP/someisp/${EXTEN});
exten => _0z.,n,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN});

; International Destinations
exten => _00z.,1,Dial(SIP/someisp/${EXTEN});
exten => _00z.,n,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN});

include => freedestinations;

[freedestinations]
; Local Free Destionations
exten => _0800.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN});

; International Free Destionations
exten => _0049.,1,Dial(SIP/FWD/*${EXTEN}:2);
------------------------------

Now I get into this situation. I would like to call a german Free Numer: 
0049800xxxxxxx

This is best matched in the context [freedestinations], and also the cheapest. 
My Telco charges a fee to call free destionations abroad.
But still: exten => _00z. is being matched.

Is there a way to solve this in a clever way? I have started just copying all 
[freedestination] extensions into [myself] but every time I have to change 
anything I have to change it everywhere.

Regards

Benoit Panizzon

Try moving the [myself] destinations into another context, say [pstn], then
do

[myself]
include => freedestinations
include => pstn

whilst your friends' contexts only include => freedestinations
