asterisk users - Sep 2010 - Intercom with Dial() works, but not with Page()

Hello list,

this works :

exten => _*XXX*,n,SIPAddHeader("Call-Info:\; answer-after=0")
exten => _*XXX*,n,Dial(SIP/${SIPACCOUNT})

The phone auto-answers the call...


this does not work :

exten => _*XXX*,n,SIPAddHeader("Call-Info:\; answer-after=0")
exten => _*XXX*,n,Page(SIP/${SIPACCOUNT})

The phone rings and does not auto-answer the call...


Can you tell me how I can get my Snom 320 auto-answer the call when I 
use the Page()-command ?


Kind regards,
Jonas.

Configure a special identity on the SNOM that is set to auto-answer in 
the phone's configuration. Or consider to use multicast instead of Page() 
if your network topology doesn't stand in the way of multicasting.

While I think Philipp's reply is a workable answer,  I am curious why two
seemly similar commands would produce different outcomes.  Have you followed
these two snippets in CLI (with and without SIP debug) to see why the header
works with Dial() but not with Page()?
