*No*, the Call-Id, From-tag, and CSeq are *not* enough to detect
retransmission -- you have to check the branch-parameter of the top Via as
well.  Otherwise, if you have received two forks of the same INVITE (say),
you will think they are duplicates, when they are not -- each must be
responded to separately.

This is the *single most common error* we have found when testing SIP
phones.  In ordinary office situations, it can cause inexplicable
difficulties for the users.
