If you get them after a subscription they should be fine.
However, Asterisk sends them out as soon as you configure a mailbox in
sip.conf with or without a subscription which is in violation of
RFCs - however, supported by most of the phones.

Correct.

Asterisk behaves wrong here, however, it gives user's the needed
functionality.
