Ah OK - so definitely no use as an inbound one then? Has anyone tried from
outside of BT's network?

Not 100% certain about the guidelines for a SIP URI, but I would have
thought that the bit after the @ would have to resolve in order for it to
be valid, so .net is more likely than .com.

Sometimes SIP URIs make use of DNS SRV records, so that one can call
[email]foo@bar.com[/email] when it's really [email]foo@sip.bar.com[/email] [at least I think that's how
it works].
