The deal was I had to show hylafax could do the job with what was on hand.  If 
I can prove it, then teh boss will probably spring for the commercial version 
which has drivers for the Brooktrout cards I already have.  At the very least 
he'll buy a Multitech card.

If I cannot prove hylafax will work, the  money will go to upgrade the Windows 
software we used to use.  It would either crash or go off into LaLa land two 
or three times a day but it did deliver the faxes

Dunno.  I'll ask client services Monday for more details.

SessionTrackingI know about but where is TracingMask set?

That's what I figure.  The sender disconnects and the modem gets confued

About one out of every 20 faxes.
