[cisco-voip] Sending Digits from a Script to a Unity Mailbox

[Wes Sisk]

Can you give the complete text of the message? I suspect that message is 
Unity's native message.  In that case we'd need to get the attention of 
some unity folks on the list.

If it is that, is there any option in the consult trasnfer step to delay 
completion of transfer?  The age old trick is to use commas for delay 
but your scripting environent or script interpreter may not implement that.
