[Serusers] Sending NOTIFY messages from presence module to an SIP Proxy Server

Hi,
NOTIFYs should be sent via dialog routes (created by Record-Routes in
SUBSCRIBE request). Please could you attach message dump from
SER-PA_RLS? (by ngrep for example)

May be, that you don't see NOTIFYs because they are "eaten" by loose
route processing on OSER (try to watch with ngrep on that machine if you
see a NOTIFY).
