You are rigth, sorry, I understood "To-tag".
Well, from the proxy point of view the transaction must end (even if
From tag doesn't match the dialog data), as the transaction layer is
not dialog aware.

But of course the dialog module would ignore the response as From-tag
doesn't match, and that's the expected behavior (the UAC wouuld also
ignore such response).

That's the question. Theorically dialog module is just a helper, but
looking at OpenSIPS there are several modules offering functionality
based on dialog module... so... It's like "it's not a secure/robust
module but I don't care".
