Speaking of which, I am interested in writing a fax client, 
but I have been too busy or lazy to pick through the source
for the protocol. I know that I read in the doc that the 
protocol documentation is not yet published; has anyone
tried to write (even a rudimentary) client? And I'm referring
to the new protocol, not the older one, which, as I understand,
is used by the existing Win and Mac clients.
One thing I would like to do is be able to replace a name
for a dialstring, by looking up the name in a database,
in order to control outbound requests. One way to accomplish
this would be to write a perl script that invokes sendfax.
Is this necessary, or is there a more straightforward approach?
