P.S. When telephone call is made and is forwarded somewhere else, what

I don't care. But what I do know is how it _should_ be:
CALL FROM:<forwarder>
Originator: <originator>
Caller: <forwarder>
This is not going to be very popular. To be more correct many would
probably want both originator and forwarder (which is missing in call
data) but almost everyone considers that whoever they are talking to
is who the call is from.
For communications/messaging systems forwarder is a facilitator that
helps in establishing communication path from data origin to data
destintation, it does not replace who the data is from, merely helps
it on the way.
