Re: Real reason why Grandcentral has 'press 1 to accept the call
said by mazilo  :said by cbrain :Try Asterisk, you could have it automatically send the 1. Why not tell us how to do this on asterisk? Because I've never done it. 
Sounds like you are using Trixbox. The above post looks like a good start. This would go in - extensions_custom.conf. If you use FreePBX to do your incoming config, you could start with "inbound routes" but send to "custom app" in "extensions_custom.conf" then from there send to an extension or ring group. If you use the fax handling remember your call is already answered. Below are a few commands you might play with. Let us know how you make out.
[extensions_custom.conf]
exten => s,n,Playtones(ring) ;play ringtone to caller if needed
exten => s,n,Goto(ext-group,1,1) ;go to ring group 1
exten => s,n,Goto(ext-local,1000,1) ; go to extension 1000 |
