I'm not sure about VoIP.ms, with on my FreeSWITCH setup, you can just dial the
username to dial internally. For example, dialing 'balleyne' or '223' on another
SIP client connected to our FreeSWITCH server would ring my extension. (That is,
dialing 'balleyne at thesipserver.domain.tld')

I imagine with VoIP.ms, it'd be similar, with the subaccounts as usernames?
That's be my first guess.

Looks like there's some documentation around getting an external SIP URI for
subaccounts on the VoIP.ms wiki:

There's probably details somewhere on the wiki about making an internal call, if
their system is set up for that.
