[hylafax-users] question, first international fax

[Lee Howard <faxguy@deanox.com>]

Hi I just sent my first international fax (from Utah, USA to Colombia, SA)
today since I began using hylafax-4.1beta2-5 (RPM from Darren) on my RedHat
6.1 system.  The modem is a 14.4 BestData Class 2 (Rockwell config).
Anyway, the fax took 6 attempts to go through, with the first 5 attempts
failing with various errors.  Once one page went through, but not the
second.  When it went though finally I only faxed the second page (omitting
the coverpage).  Later, I attempted another two-page fax to it, which went
flawlessly (the receiver may have changed fax machines on me, though).
Anyway, I'd like to know what the following errors mean, and why they would
occur.  These are the first sending errors that I've ever had with this
modem... or HylaFAX (except for busy or no answer issues).  Lastly, I've
got some questions regarding the included info file for this number, if
that helps.

Sending errors have been so infrequent that reproducing these will be
difficult, but I'm hoping that this proves useful as some sort of
diagnostic measure.  Later, I ended up trying my other fax server (which
uses a 56K 3Com/USR modem), and it had troubles also, but I fear that it is
a config problem more than anything, so I'll post that later, maybe.

Thanks.

Lee Howard

regarding EOP errors, but I didn't notice any solutions.)
