In order to dial out to a sip provider, you need to configure that provider in your sip.conf file
as a peer with your proper username and secret, etc.
The dial command syntax is
Dial ( SIP/<peer>/Extension)
or
Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED])
The registration function has nothing to do with dialing out, it's only useful
for receiving calls if your IP addresss is not permanently known to your provider.
It registers your location with the provider. You don't need to do that for
making outgoing calls. The INVITE of your outgoing call will try to authenticate
you automatically based on the info in your peer definition for the provider.

Alright, I see what you mean. Have you entered a "register" statement in sip.conf, then? I.e something like
register => USER:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/EXTENSION
What I understand is that this will result in your Asterisk Server registering on that provider's server as one of its users. Now the question is how you dial out through this registration... Ya? That much I don't claim to know. I just hope guys who have done this are reading this thread. I'd like to learn this too.
However try using the dial below with the above register statement in place (don't forget to reload your Asterisk server).
exten => _7.,2,Dial(SIP/PROVIDER.COM/${EXTEN:1})
Ideas, anyone else?
