As usual, in Italy we have a very confusing system for assing numbers...

Anyway, we have a complete list of numbering plan here:

http://www.comunicazioni.it/binary/min_comunicazioni/tel_fissa_risorse/Assegnati.xls

The first tab of this excell file is the mobile number plan, the second
is for VoIP, and so on.

For mobile, all prefixes start with the number "3" and is lenght is of 3
numbers.

We have all telephony numbers except that those for "special or premium"
services with a total of 9/10 numbers lenght, so, the extension after
prefix can be 6 or 7 long.

For example we have for a "TIM" ( telecom italia mobile ) mobile number:

338 XXXXXXX and/or 338 XXXXXX

They are both valid.

We need also to care about that landline numbers start with 0, 
so, 331 XXXXXXX is a mobile number, 331 XXXXXX is also a mobile one, 
but 0331 XXXXXX is a landline one.


Also, on some PBX with a "class" of number assigned one can respond with
a more shorter number, so, 0331 XXXX is a valid landline number. This
can off course be confusing excpecially when you get the CLI on a ISDN
link where you lose the first 0 for landline CLI, so, if you get from
ISDN a number like 331 XXXXXX you can't say for sure if it is landline
0331 or mobile 331, as it can be both true regarding on how numbers are
assigned and get from isdn.
