[*] blacklist

[John Lange]

I should probably also mention the following:

----

LookupBlacklist(options): Looks up the Caller*ID number on the active
channel in the Asterisk database (family 'blacklist').
The option string may contain the following character:
'j' -- jump to n+101 priority if the number/name is found in the
blacklist
This application sets the following channel variable upon completion:
     LOOKUPBLSTATUS
The status of the Blacklist lookup as a text string, one of
     FOUND | NOTFOUND

Example: exten => 1234,1,LookupBlacklist()

This application is deprecated and may be removed from a future release.
Please use the dialplan function BLACKLIST() instead.

I want it to detect the blacklisted number either before the greeting or after the greeting and send the blacklisted caller onto either another voicemail or just hang up.
