OK, there is no addRecordRoute in your config script so you will have to
add it in config files of BOTH SIP servers. Simply add addRecordRoute()
just before line containing if(!t_relay()) {...

Without addRecordRoute() NOTIFY messages will be send directly from one
UA to the other and your firewall will block it.

But it will still not handle responses properly. To do that you will
have to put public IP of NAT box into Via and into Record-Route headers
and this is currently under development, I recommend you to wait for the
next release.
