Hello! Does anybody know of a way to access the Request URI in a SIP message? I've got the following problem/scenario: We have a SIP Proxy (SER) wich forwards SIP-messages for non-IP destinations to our Asterisk. There is no authentication done between Asterisk and SER. I've configured Asterisk to accept any request for a PSTN-line from SER's IP-address. Since we allow IP-to-IP

Using the latest RPM (dovecot-0.99.10.5) on Fedora Core 2. I connected to the server by POP3 for a user who'd not yet received email (ever) so she didn't have a spool file in /var/spool/mail, and dovecot was failing on login. I just tested it by removing my own mailbox and see this in maillog: pop3-login: Login: ken [127.0.0.1] pop3(ken): stat() failed with mbox file

Hello All, some further information. While waiting for some info I'm rolling back to UW and I discovered that if I delete the user "~/Maildir" automatically created by Dovecot, so including any index, the POP3 server works as expected. So it isn't the "Status" flag stored in the mbox file that prevents the download but some status information stored in the IMAP

Hi. I'm really new. I was just wondering if it is possible at all to do a IP to IP call without a * server (or as a matter of fact, any other kind of server)? say I'm at mydomain.com's 10.0.0.1 and I want to call my buddy at hisdomain.com's 192.168.0.3. Is this sort of things possible? Or must we all both be registered with the same server to do that? Can this not be done
