I do not know if this is possible, but here goes.

ACS R6 Mail VS R5

I would like to be able to dial in from outside and be able to get to another outside line via the phone system. For example, I need to call a customer in the evening and it is long distance from home, but not the office. I would like to dial the office and then transfer to a centrex dial tone or conference to an external dial tone and then be able to dial the number from there. I would need to do this without any operator assistance since most of the time noone would be at the office.

The numbers will often change so I cannot do it from the VS menu.

What if I set up a centrex transfer just to 9? Would that give me an audible dial tone from the remote location? (Yes, I do see the dangers there, but I can add and remove that option remotley).

Hi Mike,
Try to transfer to an extension that is forwarded to a straight dial tone. I don't know if the R6 will do that, just an idea.
