[VoIP] Valid CLID

The + indicates it's supposed to be in e.164 format which includes the  
country code (1 in this case)


My preference would be to send non-NA ANI as +country-code and the number
North ameican could be sent as either 7 digits or +1 and seven digits.



Quoting Dennis D Hock <hockd at dteenergy.com>:
