I'm trying to convert to Avantfax 3.3.5 from 3.3.3 and it appears that I have navigated that issue.

DID routing, however still doesn't work.

I have 2 issues that I have found

1. The email now seems to be trying to be sent via the wrong sender address - I'll look at that next
2. The faxes are being received by the 'Catch-All' bucket. In the routing, I get to put in the 10 digit DID. On my system, however, I'm passing 11 digits (a leading 1) on all calls coming in from flowroute.

I tried to stick the line:
exten => _X.,1,Set(CALLERID(num)=${CALLERID(num):-10:10})

as the first line of each section of extensions_custom.conf that had anything to do with 'fax'. All I ended up with is Avantfax reporting a busy signal.

It seems logical that Catch-All is getting the calls since I send 11 digits into the system and Avantfax/Hylafax are looking at 10. I'm going to try a wildcard (ie if my DID is 8005551212 I'll use 180055512*) and hope that works. It's ugly.

Is there a better way to globally strip the leading 1 JUST from fax calls?
