Can we please kill "reinvite" - it does not exist in the SIP channel as an
option for anything. Period.

There is an option called "canreinvite" that you can set to yes or no.
Setting "reinvite" to anything will not change anything at all.

However, setting "canreinvite" to something will change ASterisk's
behaviour during a SIP call. It may also break your conversation
if your SIP device does not support the SIP re-invite mechanism.

Please read:

for more information.

PS. I know that the "reinvite" option is mentioned in many archived
e-mails, which does not help at all. Please do not add any more messages
with this option, as it will only confuse users.
