Yes, but I haven't tried the transfer feature. Note that it is reponsibility
of end-device to implement call transfer correctly. SER just processes call
transfer as any other SIP transaction.If you find any explanations about the
roots of the problem, please share it with us over the mailing list.

SER supports any responses, including "100 thanks for calling", "101 we are trying
for you", "102 have a nice day, I'm connecting your call", etc -- it is a configuration
option what you send back. You just need to design a proper numbering plan and
return 484 if GS's INVITEs include incomplete numbers.

No -- that would allow anybody who supplies empty password successfuly
steal my incoming calls.
