Thank you for the reply.
I guess what I'm asking is what does stateful do?
Does it take control of all requests relating
to the current call-id from that point on? So my

and retransmissions?

Routing logic is same for both statefuly and stateless.
The real difference is that some proxy services need to be
built on top of stateful and will not work otherwise.
For example, t_relay forks, forward does not.
t_relay can be used to account transactions, forward
cannot.
As for retransmissions: with stateful processing, ser
retransmits on UAC behalf. With stateless processing,
UAC retransmits and the retranmission get statelessly
propagated through proxy. Not of dramatically big
practical impact.
