[Serusers] Re: How to change Caller ID in FROM field ?

[Steve Blair]

You can do this several ways. I use to just completely replace the From 
header but this screwed up call accounting (for callers with caller ID 
blocking enabled) which we do in our Cisco gateways. Now I append an 
Remote-Party-ID header leaving the Fromheader intact for accounting 
purposes. Try one of the following:

1)  replace("^From:(.*)>" , "From: \"Anonymous\" 
<sip:anonymous at invalid.nowhere>");

   Where the second string contains whatever you want the caller ID info 
to be. This example is for caller ID blocking.

2)

 if (append_rpid_hf("Anonymous 
<sip:","@upenn.edu>;party=calling;id-type=subscriber;screen=yes")) {
 } else {
     log(1, "RPID not found\n");
 };

Of course this requires other configuration items. You may also want to 
add the following:

modparam("auth", "rpid_prefix", "<sip:")
modparam("auth", "rpid_suffix",
"@upenn.edu;user=phone>;party=calling;screen=no;id-type=subscriber;privacy=off")
