[VoIP] Fun with Pat and Jane

That's the issue, they *are* sending a 10 digit number.  It's "000-000-0000".

Unavailable (like when my dad calls from Wawina because their Toll  
trunks are MF) has no digits in the calling number field.

I'm also getting invalid toll-free callers.  800-123-4567 or something  
like that.

I'm going to have to start screening on calling number now to make  
sure it's valid :)
