[Asterisk-Users] iax notransfer=no and Tt in Dial()

[Michael George]

I've not heard anything about this from anyone.  I'm taking that to mean that
I'm unique in having this problem.  I think I will upgrade to a newer version
of * and try again.

I will report back with more questions or the solution.

Thanks.
