First, I don't wont the number of the person who called me. 
I wont to know which of my number where used to call me.

Second, this information is obtained after the "ATA" command, and it
need another AT commands to perform the fax reception.

I thought about two way to do this:

1) use another program to get this information, then launch faxgetty
(but which program ?)

2) patch/configure faxgetty to perform this

Thanks for any idea
