Hi Taug'ers

Perhaps someone with a telephony background can answer me a question related to call id.

If I send a call with id as "Domain.com<905-555-1212>" (domain and number altered for the purpose of this email)... My question - is the "dot" in Domain.com a valid character? I also use mixed case, just like the example (if that matters) I'm with Primus/Unlimitel here - using an IAX trunk - with the CID being tweaked by an asterisk 1.8 machine on this end. Basically - this has worked for years - with no issues that I was aware of...

I ran into a snag when placing a call to another VoIP ITSP tonight, and attempting to leave voicemail. The voicemail is recorded successfully, however I have configured with that ITSP to deliver voicemail as email - but the target email accounts also happen to be on "Domain.com" and are never delivered to those email accounts on that domain, when my Calling number is Primus/Unlimitel.

Some datapoints:

 * Calls/voicemail from my mobile phone with a with different CID are
   sent successfully. Emails successfully delivered.
 * I set my CID to be "DomainCom" on Primus/Unlimitel, and I can work
   around the problem this way too. Emails successfully delivered.
 * If I disable the voicemail to email integration at the other ITSP,
   messages are saved on their voicemail server. (no email - but
   voicemail waiting...)

I don't know if it's a goofy regex in their softswitch, voicemail server, or I'm sending bad data as a part of my CID string.

I'm trying to rule out the latter.... (but if I'm doing something silly - I'd like to fix that too...)

Any ideas on this one?  Any documents I could reference?

Many thanks in advance....

/Mark
