A few things.

I have also been troubled by the "012" "suggestion" as being too North
American specific. On the MIT PBX our current plan is to use "*0" .

Jonathan, you use "694 200 2233" as an example - is 694 a country code?

Does this work any better?

123 * 329 = 000 123 329 3
123 * 56789 = 000 123 56789 5
5551212 * 234567 = 000 5551212 234567 6
5551212 * 2345678 = 000 5551212 2345678 7
5551212 * 23456789 = 000 5551212 23456789 8
