What if the guy hooks up his asterisk or other b2bua and shares out his
connection to his friends, and rest of the internet he wants to share with?

If you set max_contacts to one how will it work when phone reregisters and
old contact by accident is still not expired because of expire-timers not
hit yet? so still in memory though 'old'. - i didnt measure how early phones
reregisters in to the proxy - dont they usually do it a short time before
registration is set to expire?
