Caller ID Caller ID (Caller Identification or CID) is a telephony intelligent network service that transmits the caller's telephone number to the called party's telephone equipment during the ringing signal or when the call is being set up but before the call is answered.
This is the case in some countries with people who choose not to be listed in the local telephone directory.

That's because LIST is a POP3 command, not an SMTP command.

 RFC 4504   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Req-14: SIP telephony devices MUST be able to place an existing call on hold, and initiate or receive another call, as specified in RFC 3264 [8] and SHOULD NOT omit the sendrecv attribute.
The "line" terminology has been borrowed from multi-line PSTN/PBX phones, except that for SIP telephony devices there can be different SIP registrars/proxies for each line, each of which may belong to a different service provider, whereas this would be an exceptional case for the PSTN and certainly not the case for PBX phones.
Users of SIP telephony devices are exposed to many threats [57] that include but are not limited to fake identity of callers, telemarketing, spam in IM, hijacking of calls, eavesdropping, and learning of private information such as the personal phone directory, user accounts and passwords, and the personal calling history.

This was primarily because the application had to manage all the telephony resources and determine how to allocate ports and route calls.

Terminations have other properties, such as a list of signaling events that they are expected to notify to the MGC and a list of signals that they are capable of transmitting on request from the MGC.

This is in part because it takes a while for terminology to catch up with reality (sometimes it never does—for example, one still speaks of "dialing a phone number" even when there is no dial).
However, keep in mind that telephony represents a medium, and a call is an interaction.
What follows is a list of some of the more common terms.
