Hey Ihor,

I can't seem to be able to reproduce this nor in master nor in 5.8.6.

My config is the default one with the following changes:

```
....
loadmodule "uac.so"
modparam("rr", "append_fromtag", 1)
...
request_route {
  $avp(callerID) = "81982934";

    xlog("Incoming request: $rm from $fu to $ru (IP:$si:$sp)\n");
    xlog("callerID set to: $avp(callerID)\n");

    uac_replace_from("sip:" + $avp(callerID) + "@localhost.localdomain");
    // $fu = "sip:" + $avp(callerID) + "@localhost.localdomain"

    // msg_apply_changes();
    xlog("Modified request FROM: $fu\n"); // Not modifed beacuse we didn't use 
msg_apply_changes();

    t_relay("127.0.0.1", "5050"); // Should modify the FROM header when 
forwarind as verified by sngrep
...
}
```

Crafting a message with you exact `From: 
sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628<mailto:sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628>`
 produces From: 
sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628` 
according to sngrep and inspecting the headers.

Relevant logs:
ERROR: {1 2 INVITE a84b4c76e66711} <script>: Incoming request: INVITE from 
sip:[email protected] to sip:[email protected] (IP:127.0.0.1:42486)
ERROR: {1 2 INVITE a84b4c76e66711} <script>: callerID set to: 81982934
ERROR: {1 2 INVITE a84b4c76e66711} <script>: Modified request FROM: 
sip:[email protected]



Do you perform some other advanced logic or use some modparams that might have 
modified this behavior?

Thanks,
Xenofon

And I have a strong impression that this is the commit, that introduced this 
behavoir

A bit update:

uac_replace_from() behave the same way as assigning to $fu (measn incorrect), 
and I confirm it on 5.8.5 and onwards (for the moment).

So, somewhere between 5.8.4 and 5.8.5 this regression was introduced.

Daniel,

That's the thing, if I comment out just this string, there is no such behavoir.

I will look at uac_replace_from(), but assigning $fu is quite a basic operation 
and is ok in a previous version. I've checked, there is no double changes to 
$f... family of variables and no msg_apply_changes() in between. And yes, $fu 
is changed before creating a transaction.

I'll dig more in the code to see what can cause this, but my message was maybe 
just a warning to community, that transition from 5.8.4 to 5.8.6 might be not 
flawless,

Cheers,
Ihor

I don't recall changes on this during the same release series, normally you 
should use assignments to $fu in a very careful way, recommended way is with 
uac_replace_from(). You have to check you config and be sure you do not make 
changes over From-URI twice or more, or try to use msg_apply_changes() if you 
do it in request_route before the transaction in created.

Cheers,
Daniel

Not sure where the bug is, just noticed when playing on local development 
Kamailio installation, that simple rewrite of $fu start to act funky.

Initial From field in a packet is:

From: 
sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628<mailto:sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628>

In the code I'm having a statement

$fu = "sip:" + $avp(callerID) + "@localhost.localdomain";

Resulting From field on 5.8.4 looks like

From:   
sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628<mailto:sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628>

Note the 2 spaces after From, but it's ok, I guess, no other changes which is 
fine.

But exact the same config file on 5.8.6 giving this:

From:   
<sip:[email protected]><mailto:sip:[email protected]>sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628<mailto:sip:[email protected];tag=83017fca-9fe4-493e-9e66-406034482628>

Which is not correct SIP URI. I'm not sure when the issue was introduced, but 
that's what I've found. If will have a bit more time, will try to investigate 
deeper, maybe just to warn about possible bugs with the versions greater than 
5.8.4 (have not tested 5.8.5)
