asterisk users - Oct 2003 - Weird IAX2 problem

I have an inbound and outbound account with Voicepulse (I am very happy with
the service, btw).

But I have a weird IAX2 problem.

When I get a inbound call on my Voicepulse DID, the call hits my asterisk
server correctly with the correct callerid (the DID phone number
617902xxxx). when the call gets passed on to a softphone (X-lite), the
caller id that shows up on the X-lite softphone as  Lee , that is the one
that I have set for outbound Voicepulse calls (callerid=Lee <978xxxxxxx>)

Any ideas

Also, and I don't know if it's related, No matter what I set my callerid
to
, my outbound calls to Voicepulse always get the default 0000000000 callerid

Thanks

Take out the callerid= line. Instead, for outgoing calls, set it explicitly
(shown below).

callerid

Try something like:

exten => s,1,SetCallerID("Lee" <(978) xxx-xxxx>)
exten => s,2,Dial,IAX2/XXX@voicepulse/${ARG1}|60|r

I use Macros, hence the ARG1

Seems to work fine (I also use voicepulse for incoming+outgoing).
