Hi,
According to rfc 3261:
19.1.3 Example SIP and SIPS URI
sip:alice;day= tuesday@atlanta.com
The last sample URI above has a user field value of
"alice;day=tuesday". The escaping rules defined above allow a
semicolon to appear unescaped in this field. For the purposes of
this protocol, the field is opaque. The structure of that value is
only useful to the SIP element responsible for the resource.
