Hi

Steve is right. Better not replace the from header for accounting purpose
but add a remote-party_id. The main issue is : not all the GW are
understanding the rpid stuff but even cisco Gw are understanding it.
Again, from header field is required in various situations and alter it
could lead to problems.

Steve,

   Thanks for your email and your solutions.

   I tried the first method as follws:

replace ("^From:(.*)<", "From: \"XXXXXXXXXX\" <")

   before I sent it to another SIP device and PSTN gateway. I did see the 
new Caller ID XXXXXXXXXX in another SIP device but the Caller ID to Verison 
Mobile phone showed "Unavailable No". I will check with Telco carrier to see

if we did send the Caller ID to them or not.
   Also I will try your second method and update to the list later.

   Thanks again.

Larry
