asterisk users - Nov 2007 - ring group containing external 10-digit numbers

I have a ring group setup that I'd like to ring a bunch of local 
extensions, plus a few outside lines.  I want recipients to confirm the 
call by pressing 1 before they are connected.  But when I add in an 
external number to this ring group (such as 5551212#), none of my 
internal extensions ring any more.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Ryan

You did not indicate how you were connected to the outside world but if you are
connected through fxo channels,  the line would be answered by the phone company
very quickly. Once 1 phone is answered, I believe all the others would stop
ringing. Could this be the issue?
