Did not work. Updated code below
Code:
#!/bin/bash
read -p "Enter Telephone number to check: " telno
TnDash=`echo ${telno:0:3}-${telno:4:3}-${telno:8}`
if  [ ${telno} == ${telno#*[^0-9]} ] && [ ${#telno} -eq 10 ]; then
  TN=`echo ${telno:0:3}-${telno:3:3}-${telno:6}`
else
if [ ${telno} == ${TnDash} ]; then
  TN=$telno
else
  echo "Invalid number <$telno> entered. Entry must be numeric and 10 digits separated by dashes"
fi
fi
 PORTEDIN_NUM=$TN
echo "TN Entered = $PORTEDIN_NUM"

Here is the updated code. It seems to work fine. But is it a good way to check input telephone numbers and convert?

Output test #1 :

Code:
Enter Telephone number to check: 214-800-3000
Temp = 214-800-3000
TN Entered = 214-800-3000
Check current log for this TN?[y/n]

Output test #2:

Code:
Enter Telephone number to check: 214-800-3000
TN Entered = 214-800-3000

installsieve

INSTALLSIEVE(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   INSTALLSIEVE(1)

 *

NAME

       installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts

SYNOPSIS

       installsieve

DESCRIPTION

       installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server.

OPTIONS

       -v <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard output.

       -l  List  all  of  the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active a arrow is printed indicating that it is the active
       script.

       -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services.

       -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server it is overwritten.  Upon  sucessfully
       putting	the  script on the server the script is set active. If <file> has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since
       sieve names may not contain a '.'.

       -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the '-l' option..

       -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>.

       -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism is chosen.

       -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a file with that name already  exists  it	is
       overwritten.

       -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user.
