[Freeswitch-users] Simulate incoming SIP Message

Hello FreeSWITCH Users, I am trying to simulate an incoming SIP message in order to test my chatplan programmatically. Basically, I want FS to send itself a SIP message, which will then be routed through the chatplan. I've been able to generate the message using ESL and events, however FS refuses to send it noting that it is "Not sending message to ourselves!" That's exactly what I want it to do. I've used this functionality before for calls, as generating a call that connects back to FS (and hooking it to echo) is a great way to test the dialplan. Is there no way to get FS to send itself a message? Thanks!
