[cisco-voip] Route pattern prefixing a "+"

[IT]

Has anyone connected CM4 to a Level3 SIP Trunk? 
They have told me that I will need to get my outbound calls to match
e.164 patterns. 
I am new to SIP trunks, as most of my offices use PRI's.
Any thoughts?

Is there a way to escape the character so it is not treated as special?
Possibly the equivalent of \+

Thanks.

CM treats + as a special character meaning 1 or more of the previous 
character.  CM does not treat + as a digit.  I do not know of anyway to 
have CM prefix a + on the number.
