Re: [Kamailio-Users] dial the prefix #31# to mask the number

I already explained that # is not allowed in a SIP URI (also in the SIP Request URI, of course).

On the other side, the answer is "Yes, of course, provided that your SIP equipment follows the standard and encodes the # character. You are allowed to dial that character, but any SIP-compliant device (useragent) is not allowed to transfer it verbatim in a SIP uri, but has to encode it - much like many international characters in a HTTP uri.

Yeah, but in Kamailio you must decode it using some "undecode" transformation. Kamailio itself doesn't undecode it by default and treats %23 hexedecimal code as 3 normal ASCII chars: '%', '2', '3'.
