[Serusers] Are Max-Forwards Mandatory ?

[Chintan Thakker]

Hi,
 Since RFC3262, it seems that Max-Forwards header is mandatory in ACKs 
sent by the server. [

28.1 Major Functional Changes @ rfc3261]

]Currently the server returns ACKs that do not have it.

Thanks,

 Platform: GNU/Linux 2.4.18-14 i686
 Server: Sip EXpress router (0.8.11pre29 (i386/linux))
