Right,
I will write a module, something like:
alias()
Except, perhaps...
forward()
Is that the right approach? The a forward table in the database that contains (at least) :
User_id forward_id
Where user_id is a number, and if that number is busy (or unavailable) then forward the request to forward_id.
Now that I think about it, this is exactly like the alias() call, isn't it?

'setuser("1002");' works, but it is a burden of static configuration -- you don't want to do that for every user. A database lookup at this place would do a much better job. We will look at it, once we complete current release and move from the frozen status.

Jiri,
Thank you for the follow up.
What I'm thinking about is having say 3 numbers:
1001@domain.com 1002@domain.com 1003@domain.com
Only 1001@domain.com is a published number. If someone calls 1001@domain.com and that number is in use, I want to forward to 1002@domain.com, and if that is in use, forward to 1003@domain.com. Finally, if the last one is busy, a busy is returned.
I understand the voicemail.com domain forwarding below. I guess I'll try the same technique with 'setuser("1002");'. I'll report how it works.

t_on_negative along with reply_route, or better named in 8.11 t_on_failure along with failure_route can do that. They simply capture all cases which resulted in a downstream failure (negative reply or non-responsive UAS). They don't care if it is "busy", "DnD" or whatsoever. (8.11 could do more about that if needed.)
e.g., ... t_on_negative(1); t_relay(); ... reply_route[1] { revert_uri(); rewritehostport("voicemail.com"); append_uri(); }
There is currently no way to personalize forwrding -- in
the example
above, you simply change hostname in a fixed manner. Personalized forwarding should not be any difficult development effort,
if needed.
Also, there is a first version of voicemail component in 8.11.

I've asked this question before. I realize it is a little out of context.
But, if anyone can give me a hint how to forward to another number if I try to call a busy number I would appreciate it.
