The fax numbers are faxed automatically from a database system and the 
numbers are as specified by the clients; if they don't get their faxes, 
they usually update their fax numbers, but some of them have employees 
that shut off the fax machine at night too (believe it or not).  It 
would make a good Dilbert cartoon ...

For most of those errors, we've selected the ttyS2 modem manually in the 
faxing routines now ...

You are correct for that log; a few nights ago it looked worse. 
 However, we only fax on the class 1 modem to the specific customers who 
we've had the most problems with on the class 2 modems.  <feature

Here's the report against all logs since summer:
