[Spce-user] SIP 200 packets rejected on trunk

After a lot of investigation, turns out I had a NAT issue so thankfully no need to do anything to the route-record (not that I could anyway).

Thankfully the provider isn't ours as the trunk is only setup in a process to get them out the door - a request from our client - I wonder why he wants them gone...

Thanks all.
