asterisk users - Feb 2011 - About maxlen parameter in queues

Dear list,

I want to avoid sending calls to a queue when it is full. From the fact that
'maxlen' must be at least 1 (I wish it could be zero but it isn't)
I'd like
to know if there's a way to do it. Setting the Queue() timeout to a little
value is not the most suitable option.
I'm using asterisk 1.4.21 but I don't know if there are some options
available on release 1.8

Thanks,

This is a bit "hackish", but why don't you just make a context
that uses AGI
to query the queue and only let the call proceed if not full?
