Hi Doug. Your doing your transfers with the transfer keys on the Polycom, 
right? So am I. I think a distinction needs to be made here. I get the 
impression that most people, and certainly the others are using #1 and #2 to do 
Asterisk assisted transfers. 

When we initiated transfers with #1, the caller id of the original caller is 
sent to the destination, and when we do #2, the caller id of the transferring 
party is sent to the destination. However, when using the transfer key on the 
polycom phone, and doing both attended and unattended transfers, the caller id 
of the original party is sent to the destination.

We want to use our transfer buttons on the phones!

It appears that asterisk is treating the sequence of SIP messages from polycom 
phones, such that it thinks all transfers are attended transfers, for the 
purposes of caller id 'pass-thru'.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Doug.
