OK. I tested this and its indeed 4 digits of ANI. If I configure 4 digits the loop is broken, and even if I configure e.164 loop is still broken.
It seems if Unity knows the Port number before hand, whether 4 digits or 10 digits it is preventing the loop rightly.

The best way to make sure is use Call Viewer on Unity and have Unity originate a call to a phone which is fwded to send the call back to Unity. What is the ANI for the call being returned? -- Vik Malhi – CCIE #13890, CCSI #31584 Senior Technical Instructor - IPexpert, Inc.

That means if I un-check "Message Notification" or let it be checked on voice-mail ports, there is no harm as long as I implement the fix to avoid Unity loop, correct? I've one more quick question, do I need to put full e.164 number or only 4 digit number on voice-mail ports to avoid looping of any external call. I checked CCM traces and it showed me 4 digit number as well as FQDN field which is e.164 10 digit number of the VM ports. I couldn't find a way in Unity to see what VM port number it is receiving? Thanks for your inputs Vik..

When we talk about Unity Looping it is normally related to loops associated with Msg Notification but it can be any call Unity originates that is returned to Unity.

I understand Message Notification ports are used when susbcriber has notifications enabled on additional devices under Subscriber>>Message notification settings, like Home Phone/Pager etc. So if I don't have notification enabled on additional devices do I still need to uncheck "Message Notification" on Ports to avoid Unity looping or is there something I am missing? MWI has nothing to do with "Message Notification ports" but only with "Dialout MWI"ports, correct? Thanks in advance... Get the latest buzz on outsourcing.
