Thanks for the suggestion. After exchanging some emails with snom support, it turns out that the 360 firmware doesn't quite support the facility I was looking for.
My actual problem was that the To: field in the body of the INFO needs to match the identity of the line in question. If I make that so, I can indeed use the From: field in the INFO body to change the calling name and number that the phone reports. But this doesn't really help me much, since I could have changed that anyway by just tweaking Asterisk's caller ID variables before sending the original INVITE. I was hoping that the INFO message would cause the 360 to display the name and number for both the calling and the (originally) called party. p.
