[Asterisk-Dev] IAX2 call variable passing between servers

The server should pass it along just fine.  The biggest "limitation" of
text messaging in Asterisk is that it requires an open call to run, thus
cannot be used with MSN for example which uses a different callid each
time you send a message.
