Thanks Brett for the corrected number. So I was looking into this rfc, I didn't 
see any error conditions mentioning a duplicate diversion header. 
I am forgetting, but SIP has its own way of stopping the loops and looping 
messages, isnt it?
I am trying to think of any header or a parameter which SIP client or server 
look for in case of a loop. 
I mean what if there are more than 2 duplicated entries in Diversion headers. 
 
 Vivek.

Something like TTL in IP headers.
