Simplified code:
if(method=="INVITE") {
t_newtran();
t_relay();
};
If the same INVITE is received twice, it will be processed only for one
time. However if the same INVITE is sent three times,
this INVITE will be processed when the second transmission is received. So
I wonder, if the third transmission is received, the process will trap in
t_newtran() and will never return until a timeout is reached?

and continues
when a new request arrived. It exits current route block
immediately on receipt of a retransmissions.
-----------------------------------------------
I found in the README included in tm module:
_______________________________________________
Name: t_newtran
Params: 0
Desc: creates a new transaction, returns a negative value on
error; this is the only way a script can add a new transaction
in an atomic way; typically, it is used to deploy a UAS
-----------------------------------------------
I think the two explanations above are inconsistent.
I don't think so.

I don't know since I don't parse your message quite. If t_newtran returns
successfuly, it indicates a new request which should be processed. It is
an error otherwise. Retransmissions cause immediate leave of script
processing.

If wrong, how does it work
actually?
Thanks!
