I second that and even have a hint as to why - when the phone becomes un 
responsive, "sip show peers" shows the phone entry without an IP field.

It seems that when the phone registers for MWI, it somehow munges the IP 
information.

Anyway, the really funny thing is that even wish subscribe for MWI 
turned off in the phine I STILL get message waiting notification... :-)

Hope this helps,
