   "The 183 (Session Progress) response is used to convey information
   about the progress of the call that is not otherwise classified..."

My reading of this is that the 183 message you describe is perfectly
legal and appropriate. The PRI has made progress by sending a SETUP
request.

What nature of problem does this cause you? Perhaps there is a better
solution than stopping legal SIP messages being sent :)
