The fact that your SIP people are hearing their own voice, but the inbound 
caller is not is the correct behaviour for your 'echoless' digital termination. 
If you were to tap the channel in the T1 leaving your premises you would find 
that the echo is coming in from beyond your interfaces. Similarly if you called 
another party that was also on all-digital facilities (ie. call back into one 
of your own DIDs) then you should find there is no echo experienced by either 
party.

The fact that the second port does not echo at all simply suggests that carrier 
has a different arrangement of equipment. If they're a dedicated long-distance 
carrier they probably have echo cancellation active on all of their trunks all 
the time to compensate for the 'long distance' echos that would become audiable 
to ordinary callers.

An interesting trick is to set up a T1 DID to answer with the echo() 
application. Try calling in to it from a regular land line - then try calling 
into it from a cellphone. In most cases cellphone calls pass through fairly 
heavy-duty cancellation and you'll find the artificially generated echo 
dissapears.
