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....
