sendfax and EOP

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Sorry about the poor problem description... I try to call is as I see
it, which more often than not is just a bit off base.

I'm through a samba share that creates a postscript file and sending
the output to faxspool.  I think the g3 is created by ghostscript 5.10
from the postscript file.  No errors are reported on the remote end and
the fax is looks just fine (no text or page errors) on the receiving machine.

Is anyone keeping a list of recommended modems?  If not, mail'em to me
and I'll throw them on a web page.  What modem(s) are being used for 
developement?

BTW: I'm mirroring the mgetty stuff at 
http | ftp ://buckwheat.hdw.uncwil.edu/pub/mgetty

thanks,

-Tony
