First, please try to convice your mail program to hard wrap lines...  :-)

Now... if the incoming modems are on a hunt group, then this is a
a simple problem.  The sender dialed the pilot number of the hunt
group.  That's the whole point of _having_ a hunt group, no?

If you need to know which number they _got_, instead of which one they
dialed, you should be able to figure it out from the modem which
answered the call.

If you've got, for example, an 800 number ringing down on a hunt group,
and you want to know if the call was local or LD, you're SOL until the
billing data comes.
