Hi

I had a similar problem and as far as I know, the asterisk server
doesn't know which of those numbers has answered your call. 

The way we got around this is by getting our cdr from the supplier,
putting the info in a separate table and then on calls where multiple
POTS/mobile numbers have been called, seeing which of those numbers
shows up in the suppliers cdr at roughly the time recorded in the
asterisk cdr (there is often a difference between the 2 times)

If anyone knows any different, I'd like to know as well!
