<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I also found solution to another common feature I was planning to add:<br>
call screening (screening of calls with unknown/missing CID or from<br>
numbers I don't know or have placed in a special group) - in Asterisk<br>
this is a bit limited to about 2, 3 options which I have no control<br>
over, but in FreeSWITCH, it seems, I have a complete freedom of how/what<br>
to do when call screening is initiated -<br>
<a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Dialplan_XML" target="_blank">http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Dialplan_XML</a> (Example 13) is exactly<br>
what I needed, though I take it I could customise it a bit so that:<br>
<br>
I (as the called party) have the option (by pressing a specific key<br>
after receiving the caller's name) to: 1) accept the call; 2) send a<br>
message back to the caller saying this number is unavailable and then<br>
terminate his/her call; 3) redirect him/her to voicemail; 4) drop the<br>
call entirely without giving any explanation at all (or, alternatively,<br>
torture them with some moh if they appear to be telemarketing group for<br>
example). By reading that example, it looks as though this can be achieved.<br>

One other thing: in Asterisk, there is a vast sound library for various<br>
messages/music/media which could be used. Is there a similar thing in<br>
FreeSWITCH or should I use Asterisk's media pack for now?<br>

<div>I recommend looking at the docs/phrase/phrase_en.xml and see the list of the phrases / pre-recorded sound files under the name "callie".</div><div><br></div><div>-Avi</div></div></div>
