How can we determine the exact number of digits for the long distance call?
What about dialing plans where
number of digits varies?
How can we determine international dialling code of one's PBX?

eofster: "exact number of digits" is a preference, such as "the international
dialing code"
in terms on russian PSTN:
1) Record is: +7 777 1234567 //Kazah mobile number
PBX _may_ not undestend '+'
or record may miss '+'
or PBX may not accept e164 and wait for 81077771234567 in russian or
0077771234567 in US
I'm too lazy to provide details in english I'll send you email. ok?

Sorry for my duplicate... Didn't found this issue.
Back to topic: In Germany it's easy. There only have to be a check whether the
first
number is zero or a "+". If not, a predefined prefix could be placed before the
number.

What if the number is a local extension 0123? How can we know whether it is
local or long distance? What if it's
not Germany?

In Germany it's no problem: There aren't any numbers beginning with "0". In
other
countries I know like France it's a bit different: There you have to use the
prefix
every time also when you make a local distance call. That's why there are
numbers
with a zero as the first number but this should not make problems because the
french
users shouldn't be accustomed in calling number without typing the prefix.
But I understand that it's not very easy to find a solution for every
country...

Not even every country, but every PBX configuration.
And the beautiful thing is... international format solves all these problems.

Not really - I have no problems with calling. I only have to use the prefix
every
time. Also for local destination calls. When making internatonal calls I use the
countrycode. But with a regular phone I can make local destination calls without
having to use the prefix.
It would only be a little bit more comfort when telephone detects these local
destination calls without a prefix automatically, but it's not that important
and I
think the priority can be set to low.

Do you mean dialling numbers, that are not in the address book?

I mean both. In the address book I only have numbers in the long destination or
international format. I know, this differs a bit from the original problem but
generally its the same feature.

10 digits is mandatory where I live, even for local calls. Your solution
doesn't work.
I live in Montreal, and for the same area code (514) some numbers are long
distance
and others are local. Microsoft implemented a local call detection in their
Telephony
API where they would try and detect which numbers where local and which where
not by
detecting area codes and even refining to the next three digits of the number.
I don't think there is a simple solution to the problem. It depends on where you
live, your provider (callcentric treats every call as long distance, problem
solved),
and wouldn't work for everybody.
I personally like the way Telephone doesn't try to handle this. If it ain't
broke,
don't fix it, right?

@foxx : in France, all numbers are 10 digits long, first 2 mandatory digits are
zone + fairs prefixes (01 to 09) :
0123456789 is a ground phone in Paris
0621123456 is a cell phone
0490464646 is a ground phone in south
0899119911 is a special number just as 1-800
I think that mac os already deal with number formatting depending on the
region. Perhaps Telephone.app could use this ?

gaspard, there's no such feature in Mac OS X.

I am voting for a "for numbers longer than NN digits, prepend YY" feature.

I am also voting for "for numbers longer than NN digits, prepend YY", where NN
and YY are configurable.
