Hi all,

We find many SIP messages are not containg 'userinfo' in its Contact header 
field.
According to RFC3261, Contact header must contain SIP-URI or SIPS-URI, and its 
BNF
form is as following.

SIP-URI = "sip:" [ userinfo ] hostport
uri-parameters [ headers ]
userinfo = ( user / telephone-subscriber ) [ ":" password ] "@"

Case A
Contact: <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Case B
Contact: <sip:sipimplementors.com>


My understanding is that as 'userinfo' is optional, it "may" be OK not to have 
it in Contact header
as shown in Case B. I think, however, that there must be some cases where 
userinfo is mandatory.

Can anybody clear this issue? I am still wondering whether to put userinfo or 
not.

Many thanks,

Sungwoo
