Hi,
fyi: the problem was solved :-) I was using the binary capi4hylafax
package from sid on sarge, but after compiling it from the source
everthing is working. I also limited the modems for outbound use by
defining a ModemGroup "any" which contains the desired modems.

Thanks for your help.

Regards
Thilo
