I'm firing off a server to appia to try out their hosting. I think I'll just build a new box and migrate users over one at a time. We never did resolve an issue where DID's from them were not working but perhaps having the server on their network will help.
Also, I see the page you sent me but nothing to click on to see demo. I'll look again later. Thanks for the info, I'll file this for later.
