After thinking about it, I realised yesterday that what I said might have given 
the impression that I don't know what I'm talking about, which is kind of true.

I have three SIP accounts:

1. An ekiga.net account
I set this up a long time ago because I wanted to find an alternative to Skype, 
and this looked like the best way to get my feet wet.

2. A diamondcard account
I got this originally so that I could call SIP-->phone to my Auntie in another 
country

3. A SIP account with my ISP
This one replaced my POTS landline a year or so ago. It is a SIP account which 
enables my landline number to function the same as my old POTS number.

I have the following questions:

1. Can any SIP account establish a connection with any other SIP account?

2. What is the nature of the obstacles in the way of this? For example, some 
registrars not being able to establish connections with others, commercial 
'gateways', etc.

3. Is more than one SIP account in my e-mail signature redundant (assuming all 
three registrars are working)?

Hi Greg

Thanks for getting back so promptly.  I have received an email
    welcoming me to ekiga.net that says the registration process is now
    done.  It confirms my SIP address.

Regards

Eric Jackson
