opening sip uri with custom call

marcheschi opened this issue · comments

Hi
First of all thank you for this Awesome Thunderbird add-on.
I would like to ask how is possible to call numbers written as sip uri, like this:
wbdemo@conf.zipdx.com

I use a yealink t20P and this works well with a uri like this:
https://ip.number.it/cgi-bin/ConfigManApp.com?number=

But I'm not able to use the sip uri syntax through TBDialout, in order to form a http uri like this:
https://ip.number.it/cgi-bin/ConfigManApp.com?number=wbdemo@conf.zipdx.com

That works from a browser with yealink Phone.

Is it possible ?

Thank you

Paolo

At present, no. TBDialOut was designed for use with telephone numbers and only checks fields in the address book in which it expects to find (voice) telephone numbers. Because there are a multitude of different ways in which people punctuate and format telephone numbers in address books (0123456789, 01-234-56789, 0123 456 789, +44.123.456.789 etc) TBDialOut cleans these numbers up before passing them on by removing everything that isn't a number. So a SIP URI such as you give will be an empty string by the time it has been cleaned.
