I have found with HylaFAX and Multitech MT5634ZBA modems that it works best
configured as Class 1, not Class 2 as I would have expected. I am
attaching a working HylaFAX configuration file from the SLES9 system that
handles our incoming and outgoing faxes.

I have found that some experimentation may be required sending faxes as not
all fax machines are created equal. There are several sendfax options for
compression, speed, etc. that may be tweaked to get things working right
for a particular destination.

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within
limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within
the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and
always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
