I don't mean to sound harsh, but you're asking me to take the time to 
think through your problem and try to help you when you haven't 
bothered to take the time to at least try sending to another 
destination.  I'm not impressed.

For testing purposes it's not particularly important whether or not 
'sendfax -B 4800' works for all of you or not.  You just need to try it 
once to see if that goes fine.  If it does *then* we bother trying to 
figure out how to make it work for all of you.  Furthermore, if it does 
work, you'll not likely want to limit all future faxes at 4800 bps if 
you'll be doing any normal amount of toll-charged faxing (you'll waste 
a lot of money on phone bills and may as well buy a new modem to get 
14400 bps).

Well, I wasn't necessarily trying to present that as an option but as a 
theoretical possibility.  You'd need HylaFAX CVS to do it since the 
configuration parameters to do it weren't in-place until recently.
