I would have ask about your dial-string rules and long-distance dialing
codes etc., but HylaFAX *really is* asking the modem to dial 19204571742
(see the ATDT line), so the problem is certainly _not_ HylaFAX. Either
your modem is really wierd, a number is being redirected somewhere (do you
have any call-routers?), or your telco is generally odd.

We once had a problem where all LD faxes were failing - turned out the
telco had accidentally blocked us from dialing long distance - gits, I
lost my bank-holiday because of that :(
