   Sometimes I see devices that send INVITE without user name in R-URI but
   in the To header field it appears.
   Must a VoIP gateway reject such request or instead take the user name
   from header To and initiate call to PSTN.
   For example:

   INVITE sip:1.2.3.4:50000;transport=UDP SIP/2.0
   From:
   <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>;tag=40de6bc8-c24334bd-13c4-26c596-6af63e5f-26c596
   To: <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
   ....

   As you can see the UAC "invites" UAS to make call to telephone number
   6555.

A gateway (or other device) should not take any automated action based
on the To URI, only on the Request-URI.  That is because the INVITE
may have passed through multiple proxies and various forwarding
operations; the information about the "real" destination of the call
should be entirely contained in the Request-URI.

It is possible that the gateway is configured to know what to do with
an INVITE with a Request-URI without a user-part, but most likely it
should reject it as having an unusable address.
