Summary:                    The caller id is ignored when transferring the call
Description: 
I need to replace the caller id before I do the transfer, so the new call
has a new caller id, bit my efforts are completely ignored. Additionally, I
try to use the function sip_addheader to add a "From:" header and that gets
ignored as well. When the call gets tranfered the "From" header has the
exact value that it had when it arrived to the Asterisk.

I re-read note http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=13986#c95825. This confirms
that you are trying to transfer the
call away from Asterisk. In this case, it is absolutely impossible for the
caller id to be propagated to the new call. I know of no way to do that
based on any of the SIP RFCs or drafts that I have read. This is most
definitely a feature request and not a bug.

If you need the caller id to be changed for outbound calls that do not go
through Asterisk, the only way that I can think to do so would be to add a
SIP proxy to the path to do the job for you.

Closing.
