Re[2]: Premature Termination

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

  There's a big code cleanup coming up on the Courier (once x2 is out in 
  Europe). This includes bugfixes and any enhancements suggested. If 
  you've got a problem faxing, please mail me with the log file and (if 
  possible) information on the remote fax (make, model, software used if 
  it's a fax/modem, etc). Also, if you've got any enhancements you'd 
  like to see, please let me know.
  
  Please email me direct to avoid cluttering up the mgetty mailing list 
  (sorry for the blatant commercialism here, Gert :-). If you're having 
  problems with the USR mail gateway, please mail me at 
  steve@dop.prestel.co.uk.
  
  Cheers, Steve

Hmmm, not very surprising. Problem with the USR modems is: if something 
fails, they lower DCD (carrier detect), and *then* send the error message. 
Unless you are "ignore-carrier"'ing this, you won't see the message, and 
just get a "mysterious failure".
  
Now, +FHNG:25 means "I can't talk to the other end, it doesn't understand 
me". I've seen this occasionally when faxing from the USR Courier to an 
Elsa Rockwell-based modem, but rarely otherwise.
  
Please try with different receiving machines, and see whether that will 
improve things.
