Nesting Variables in Asterisk dialplan

Hello experts,

In my asterisk dialplan, when user dials extension 1, sip trunk (GSM1) should be dialled, and an email should be sent to (Email1) address. The same with extension 2,3 and 4

I wrote this in my dialplan:

[gsmplan]

exten => _[1234],1,dial(SIP/siptrunk/GSM${EVAL(${EXTEN})},60)

exten => h,1,System(/usr/local/bin/sendEmail -f me@domain.com -t Email${EVAL(${Email1})} -m 'This is a test message' )

In the verbose, I am having:

Executing [1@gsmplan:1] Dial("SIP/user-0000064b", "SIP/siptrunk/GSM1,60") in new stack

The problem is that it's dialing GSM1 while it should be replaced with it's variable value.

Any help?

Thank you for your helpful post ! I was waiting for your response :)

Actually this worked perfectly:

exten => _[1234],1,dial(SIP/${GSM${EXTEN}}@siptrunk,60)

But this didn't work:

exten => h,1,Set(emailDest=${EVAL(Email${EXTEN})})
exten => h,2,System(/usr/local/bin/sendEmail -f me@domain.com -t ${emailDest} -m 'This is a test message' )

In console, I am getting: Set("SIP/gsmgw-00001184", "smsDest=GSMh")

Here are two problems: GSM and h.

Thank you in advance.

Sorry for the mistake, the verbose is:

Set("SIP/gsmgw-00001184", "emailDest=GSMh")

exten => _[1234],1,dial(SIP/${GSM${EXTEN}}@siptrunk,60)

exten => _[1234],n,Set(numdialed=${EXTEN})

exten => h,1,Set(emailDest=Email${numdialed})
exten => h,2,System(/usr/local/bin/sendEmail -f me@domain.com -t ${emailDest} -m 'This is a test message' )

Remember that ${EXTEN} always evaluates the current extension....
