Manju is correct that transport parameter should not be present in the
from and to header as per table-1 of RFC-3261.

Page 151 also suggest that Elements processing URI should ignore any
disallowed components if they are present.

But I am not sure if the transport parameter in the from header ( which
is not allowed ) should be ignored while populating the local target uri
information in dialog. 

Paul could you kindly comment on this ??
