Now what's strange, is that it might look like SWYX may be right  
here. Paragraph 4 in section 4 in the RFC says:

    Alice "calls" Bob using his SIP identity, a type of Uniform Resource
    Identifier (URI) called a SIP URI. SIP URIs are defined in Section
    19.1.  It has a similar form to an email address, typically
    containing a username and a host name.  In this case, it is
    sip:bob at biloxi.com, where biloxi.com is the domain of Bob's SIP
    service provider....

This somehow implies that asterisk, when dialling back, should  
default to using it's own domain name in the host part in the INVITE,  
right?
