Answering Machine Connected

Post by greghh »

Bill,
Concerning the scripts, this is what I now understand:

Whatever is in the script is performed BEFORE the answering machine takes over (hang up, speak, phonespeak, etc.).

So if I want to hang up on a caller and delete the call, the "HangUp" and "DeleteCall" commands do that job (in that order)...and the answering machine will not take the call. If I don't use the "HangUp" command, the answering machine WILL take the call.

Is that correct or have I missed it again?

Thanks.

Correct!

Right again! It sounds like you have a handle on this now!
