> Realize that what you are doing is acting as a provider for public
services. sipXecs was designed as an enterprise solution, and has
"gateway/branch" functions that will act to ensure the proper caller-id and
gateway is used when sending 911. In a residential or consumer environment,
you probably need to look for a specialty SBC to intercede between sipx and
your provider to do what you are trying to do, because, well, it's not
designed in the way you decided to employ it is all.

While it is neat you decided to do so, I would never have tried to do
something without addressing 911 first, because the penalties are severe and
I for one am not interested in breaking 911 service or becoming the one
someone points my finger to when the local ESOC launches a complaint.

Without an interceding device, I do not know how you would address it,
really. You "should" advertise it is not desgined for use as a replacement
land line nor 911 compatible, and not allow 911 dialling until you resolve
it though.
