Re: [hylafax-users] Regarding ISDN & HylaFax

["Sunil ." <sunil18@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Axel and other kind Hylafax souls out there, 

Thank you very much for your response. Appreciate it.
Just got a response from my local Telco that they offer a 30 channel ISDN line.

a)Does that mean that if i purchase an ISDN line with 30 channels, HylaFax would see it as "30 different modem lines" and would concurrently support 30 outgoing faxes at any one time ?

b)You mentioned that you sent out 4000 faxes a day.
This volume was sent out on what kind of ISDN line (meaning, how many channels)? 

Once again, thank you very much.

Regards,
Sunil
