Yes, you're right, this works fine.

The reason why I was wrong is because I closely followed DumpChan output
like this :
- DumpChan output is :
Dumping Info For Channel: SIP/7530-082f6160:
================================================================================
Info:
Name=               SIP/7530-082f6160
Type=               SIP
UniqueID=           1245227926.4
CallerIDNum=        7530
CallerIDName=       Michele
DNIDDigits=         7531
RDNIS=              (N/A)
...

I then tried :
${IMPORT(SIP/7530-082f6160,CallerIDNum)} which fails

Maybe, it should be preferable to teach DumpChan to output data like this :

Dumping Info For Channel: SIP/7530-082f6160:
================================================================================
Info:
Name=               SIP/7530-082f6160
Type=               SIP
UniqueID=           1245227926.4
CALLERID(num)=        7530
CALLERID(name)=       Michele
...


What do you think ?
