Hmmm.. I was pretty sure that if I dont change that line I cant receive
calls from telmex.. but let try it againg and I will tell you what it was.

Wouldn't it be better if that could be done in unicall.conf? As with the
other options like protocolvariant and protocolend ??

Anyway.. thanks for doing that update ;) I would be glad to know when it
is available.

Well.. in the first place.. that pbx is not mine, I didnt configured it
and I cant even touch it, Im just putting asterisk in between right now.

Im gonna try that.. Thanks for the help!
