Call transfer using SIP require cooperation between the 3 end-points involved.
On the public internet, which is probably why you want to use OpenSIPS, this does not work primarily because of accounting reasons. You can configure the SIP proxy to route the Refer and Notify alright but as an end-point you will not succeed at instructing for instance a remote PSTN gateway to transfer the call to some other end-point because you have no trust relationship with it and nobody can be billed for this new call leg. Handling the routing of REFER in OpenSIPS is trivial but it will not solve your problem. The only way you can make transfer work reliably is behind the same PBX.
