Hi,

    I was not able to find a reply to the below posting
by Ravi. I too have a similar issue with the MESSAGE
request.

Consider the scenario of two users using the same UA.
If user A has sent a MESSAGE request or any out-of-
dialog request to a URI say sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and the user A is yet to get a final response for the
request.
    Now user B is trying to send a MESSAGE request
to the same URI. Should the UA allow the second
MESSAGE request to pass through or not?

Can somebody clarify this?

Regards,
Dinesh
