Some country have international dialing prefix greater than 6 digit. = Limit of 20 was chosen for several reasons: - That is the maximum incoming party number size (24.008 Calling Party BCD Number) - Most networks do not support Calling Party BCD number more than 20 characters (24.008 Calling Party BCD Number) - SMS Address is limited to 20 characters (23.040) - oFono does not support EFadn extensions, and thus numbers are limited to 20 characters (31.102) There might be exceptions to this where more than 20 characters are required. Patches are of course always welcome. Regards, -Denis --===============4306246657860308403==--
